Using a proportional relationship, we have that:

  • a) The constant of proportionality is of 0.625, hence the equation is: y = 0.625x.
  • b) The distance of two cities that are 5 miles apart is of 8 kilometers.
  • c) When they are 200 kilometers apart, we have that the distance in miles is of y = 0.625(200) = 125.

<h3>What is a proportional relationship?</h3>
  • A <em>proportional relationship</em> is a function in which the <u>output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality</u>, that is:.

y = kx

  • In which k is the constant of proportionality.

Item a:

From the graph, when x = 8, y = 5, hence:

y = kx

5 = 8k

k = \frac{5}{8}

k = 0.625

The constant of proportionality is of 0.625, hence the equation is: y = 0.625x.

Item b:

From the graph, when y = 5, x = 8, hence:

  • The distance of two cities that are 5 miles apart is of 8 kilometers.

Item c:

When they are 200 kilometers apart, we have that the distance in miles is of y = 0.625(200) = 125.

Please show me how to solve this equation step by step!<br> 1/25(20-t)=4/25t-3/5
rjkz [21]

Remark

Multiply both sides of the equation by 25. Then you have an equation that you have already done probably.

Step One

Multiply both sides of the equation by 25

1 * (20 - t) = 4t - (3/5) * 25    Every part of the equation must be multiplied by 25

(20 - t) = 4t - 75/5                 3*25/5 = 75/5

20 - t = 4t - 15                       Add t to both sides

20 - t + t =4t + t  - 15             Combine like terms

20 = 5t - 15                            Add 15 to both sides

20 + 15 = 5t - 15 + 15             Combine like terms  

35 = 5t                                    Divide by 5

35/5 = 5t/5                             Switch sides
