Answer: Yes

Tc = 3.12m

Therefore, total cost of apple is directly proportional to the total mass with a proportionality constant of 3.12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of the apples is proportional to the total mass. The product of the mass and the cost per mass ($3.12) gives the total cost.

It can be shown using the equation below

Tc = c×m

Where Tc = total cost

c = cost per unit mass

m = total mass in kilogram

Tc = 3.12m

Therefore, total cost of apple is directly proportional to the total mass with a proportionality constant of 3.12.

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the price of apple per kilogram.

Hence, price of total apples is equal to the product of number of apples and price per kilogram of apple.

Through: (-5, -5), slope=2/5

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

m: It is the slope

b: It is the cut point with the y axis

The slope is: $m = \frac {2} {5}$

Thus, the equation is of the form:

$y = \frac {2} {5} x + b$

We substitute the given point and find "b":

$-5 = \frac {2} {5} (- 5) + b\\-5 = -2 + b\\-5 + 2 = b\\b = -3$

Finally, the equation is:

$y = \frac {2} {5} x-3$

Answer:

$y = \frac {2} {5} x-3$

Answer:

x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Because he bought an unknown number of soccer balls that is where we use the variable, x. And we know that he bought 3 baseballs, and we add them both to get the total number of things bought. Hope this helped and you could give brainliest :)
