Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for area of a triangle is A = (1/2)bh,

For the first triangle we can leave it in general terms, so it's area is

A = (1/2)bh, depending on what b and h are, but it doesn't matter here...

The second triangle has base that is twice the other triangles base.  Bases being multiples of each other is the definition of being proportional so the bases are proportional, an the area of the second triangle is

A = (1/2)(2b)h,   which simplifies to

  A = bh

Comparing the 2 areas, you can see that one has a multiplier of (1/2), so their areas are proportional

The table and the graph each show a different relationship between the same two variables, x and y:
RideAnS [48]
Equation of the table is given by
y - 210 = (280 - 210)/(4 - 3) (x - 3)
y - 210 = 70(x - 3)
y - 210 = 70x - 210
y = 70x

When x = 11, y = 70(11) = 770

Equation of the graph is given by
y = 110/2 x = 55x

When x = 11, y = 55(11) = 605

Therefore the value of y in the table is grater than the value of y in the graph by 770 - 605 = 165
