Answer:
8(60)/3(10) = 16 This is correct hope it helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Contradictions usually mean they go against established rules. Squaring a negative number is one example if it is in math. But just think of anything that goes against what is known.
Answer: C) 5
--------------
x = independent variable, y = dependent variable
Assuming this is a linear function, each increase of x by 2 leads to y going up by 10. So 10/2 = 5 is the unit increase each time x bumps up by 1.
-------------------
An alternative is to use the slope formula to get
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (25 - 15)/(4 - 2)
m = 10/2 <--- this expression shows up again
m = 5 <---- leading to the same answer as before
So we see that the slope formula is a more drawn out method to finding the answer.
Write them out as a fraction then reduce them. If theyre the same then its proportional.
25/45 can be cancelled down to 5/9
15/27 can be cancelled down to 3/9
So no theyre not.
