a constant of proportionality is a number you have to multiply x by to get y.
y=kx is the equation that expresses the proportionality of x and y
in this case, 10 video games cost $145
the question's basically asking what you have to multiply 10 by to get 145
y= 145; x=10
k= y/x = 145/10=14.5
the constant of proportionality is 14.5
<span>The set of an integer is called the set Z
The set of integers number is composed by
the positive whole number {0, 1, 2, 3…}
and the negative whole number
{…-4, -3, -2, -1, 0} .We write it as follow
Z= {…- 4, -3, -2, -1, 0}U{0, 1, 2, 3…}.
If we assume that k is inside Z, so k can
be a negative integer of positive integer.
Besides the absolute value of a number
is always the positive value of this number.
Let be k<0 an integer different from zero,
so abs(k) >0, and abs(k)> k for all value of k.
For example for k= -2, and
abs(k)=abs(-2)=2> -2 (always)</span>
Answer:
B) A herd of lions whose numbers triple every decade.
Step-by-step explanation:
Situations that can be modeled by exponential functions:
A situation can be modeled by exponential functions when the change is a multiplication or a division, not a sum or subtractions.
In this question:
In option A, C and D the measures are a sum or subtractions, as the rate of change is always the same. So it rests option B as the answer, as tripling is multiplying by 3.
