Answer:

straight line that passes through the origin

Step-by-step explanation:

Two variables are said to have a direct variation or proportional relationship if it can be represented by y = kx, where k is a constant.

Comparing this with the equation of a straight line y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept (value of y when x = 0), We can tell if the say that the graph of a direct variation or proportional relationship is a straight line with no y intercept (b = 0, that is it passes through the origin).

Solve for X, will mark brainliest if right

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides are in proportion.

$\frac{RG}{FG} =\frac{SH}{FH}$
40 / 7x + 14 = 44 / 33 + 44
40 / 7x + 14 = 44/77 = 4/7
40(7) = 4(7x + 14)
280 = 28x + 56
10 = x + 2
<u>x = 8</u>
