The accurate statement is the first one, which is "Igna read 4 times as many books as Gordon."
Mark brainliest if I helped you
7/9 = 42/54...when 42/54 reduces, it becomes 7/9...so this is proportional because proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions.
u could also check it this way...
12/21 = 15/24
cross multiply
(21)(15) = (12)(24)
315 = 288.....these do not equal and are therefore, not proportionate
440/4 = 300/3
110 = 100....not equal, so not proportionate
120/5 = 88/4
24 = 22.....not proportionate
66/82 = 99/123
0.804 = 0.804.......these are proportional
68/172 = 43/123
0.395 = 0.349......nope, not proportional
We all are familiar with (x,y) coordinate plane where some lines or curves are drawn. These curves are drawn or made up using some (x,y) points. These values of (x,y) points satisfy the equation of curves.
The equation of x and y variables is called a Relationship. Now, a Function is a "special relationship of x and y variables" where each input x has a single answer for output y.
In other words, we can say any relation y=f(x) would be a "Function" if and only if each value of x input give us a unique value of y output from the equation. No two values of y can be output of same x-value input.
For example:- y = f(x) = 2x is a Function because each value of x would give unique answer for y. x=4 gives y=8.
Another example is:- y = f(x) = √x is "not a function" because one-value of x would give two answers of y. x=4 gives y= -2 and y=2.
