Answer:

\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3

Explanation:

part A identification for slope:

\sf 2x + 5y = 15

\sf 5y = -2x + 15

\sf y = \frac{-2x + 15}{5}

\sf y = -\frac{2 }{5} x+3

comparing with slope intercept form: y = mx + b

we can find that here the slope is \bold -\frac{2}{5}

part B, solving the equation:

if the line is parallel, then the slope will be same.

given coordinates: ( - 10, 1 )

using the equation:

y - y₁ = m( x - x₁ )

\sf y - 1 = \bold -\frac{2}{5} (x --10)

\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -4 + 1

\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3

Extra information:

check the image below. this proves that the line is parallel and passes through point (-10, 1). the blue line is question line and red the answer line.

Solution:

<u>Step-1: Convert the line into slope intercept form.</u>

  • 2x + 5y = 15
  • => 5y = -2x + 15
  • => y = -0.4x + 3

<u>Step-2: Use the point slope form formula.</u>

  • y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
  • => y - 1 = -0.4{x - (-10)}
  • => y - 1 = -0.4{x + 10}
  • => y - 1 = -0.4x - 4
  • => y = -0.4x - 3

Y=3.6x is direct variation. The constant is 3.6
8y=2x is the same as y=0.25x. It is direct variation, and the constant is 0.25

1. Assuming "dinners made" is on the y-axis, DV is y=2x. The constant is 2

2. This is not direct variation, and therefore does not have a constant of variation

Determine if the given ratios are proportional. Explain. (please help it's due today)
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

not proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use cross products to determine if the ratios are proportional

50         10

------ = -----------

32           8

50*8 = 10 *32

400 = 320

This is not true so they are not proportional
