Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3 pears, 9 apples
the ratio of pears to apples is 3:9 which reduces to 1:3
now if it wanted the ratio of apples to pears, it would be 9:3 which reduces to 3:1
*****pay close attention to the way it is worded
Answer:
x - 3 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
You can realise it plotting the points.
Or you can use : ( x - x1 ) / ( y - y1 ) = ( x1 - x2 ) / ( y1 - y2 )
where ( x1 , y1 ) and ( x2 , y2 ) are the given points.
The correct answer is 2 3/4
Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form
or 
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin
Let
x ----> the time in hours
y ----> the distance in miles
<em>Find the value of k</em>
For the point (4,2268)

The slope represent the speed of the airplane
so
The linear equation is

Part 1 :
The point (0,0) represents the starting point of the aircraft, when the time and distance are equal to zero. The cruising starts when time t = 0.
Part 2 :
The point (4, 2268) represents the plane after 4 hours of cruise , and shows it has traveled a distance of 2268 miles after 4 hours
