Find the constant of proportionality k. Then write an equation for the relationship between x and y

ExtremeBDS [4]

Question:

Find the constant of proportionality k. Then write an equation for the relationship between x and y

$\begin{array}{ccccc}x & {2} & {4} & {6} & {8} \ \\ y & {10} & {20} & {30} & {40} \ \ \end{array}$

Answer:

(a) $k = 5$

(b) $y = 5x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\begin{array}{ccccc}x & {2} & {4} & {6} & {8} \ \\ y & {10} & {20} & {30} & {40} \ \ \end{array}$

Solving (a): The constant of proportionality:

Pick any two corresponding x and y values

$(x_1,y_1) = (2,10)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (6,30)$

The constant of proportionality k is:

$k = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$k = \frac{30-10}{6-2}$

$k = \frac{20}{4}$

$k = 5$

Solving (b): The equation

In (a), we have:

$(x_1,y_1) = (2,10)$

k can also be expressed as:

$k = \frac{y- y_1}{x- x_1}$

Substitute values for x1, y1 and k

$5 = \frac{y- 10}{x- 2}$

Cross multiply:

$y - 10 = 5(x - 2)$

Open bracket

$y - 10 = 5x - 10$

Add 10 to both sides

$y - 10 +10= 5x - 10+10$

$y = 5x$

Herman and Jackie are saving money to pay for college. Herman currently has $15,000 and is working hard to save $1000 per month.

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Part 1) $10\ months$

Part 2) $\$25,000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y ----> the total amount of savings

x ----> the number of months

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope or unit rate

b is the y-intercept or initial value

In this problem we have

<em>Herman</em>

The slope is equal to $m=\$1,000\ per\ month$

The y-intercept is $b=\$15,000$

substitute

$y=1,000x+15,000$ ----> equation A

<em>Jackie</em>

The slope is equal to $m=\$1,300\ per\ month$

The y-intercept is $b=\$12,000$

substitute

$y=1,300x+12,000$ ----> equation B

Part 1) In how many months will they have the same amount of savings?

equate equation A and equation B

$1,300x+12,000=1,000x+15,000$

solve for x

$1,300x-1,000x=15,000-12,000$

$300x=3,000$

$x=10\ months$

Part 2) How much will each of them have saved?

substitute the value of x=10 months in any of the equations

equation A

$y=1,000(10)+15,000=\$25,000$

equation B

$y=1,300(10)+12,000=\$25,000$

A proportional relationship betweeof potatoes (x) and the price in dollars (y) is graphed, and the ordered pair (4, 3) is on the

CaHeK987 [17]

4/3 = 1/x.....4 lbs potatoes to $3 = 1 lb of potatoes to $x
cross multiply
(4)(x) = (3)(1)
4x = 3
x = 3/4
x = 0.75....so 1 lb of potatoes cost 75 cents

(8,6)...this means 8 lbs of potatoes cost $6
