"a ∝ b" means "a is proportional to b", which in turn means there is some constant k such that
a = kb
We're given that a = 18 and b = 3, so that
18 = 3k ⇒ k = 6
Then when b = 5, we would have
a = 6 × 5 = 30

Step-by-step explanation:
When two lines are parallel, all four angles formed by the intersection of the two lines are right angles, meaning their angle measures are (90°). This means that alternate interior angles are congruent because all alternate interior angles measures equal (90°). Therefore, by the alternate interior angles converse theorem, lines (
) and (
) are parallel.
The alternate interior angles converse theorem states if two angles are congruent and they have the relation of being a part of two lines intersected by a third line, then the two non-intersecting lines are parallel.
Step-by-step explanation:
3/6=k/7
cross multiply then
6k=21
divide by the coefficient of k
k=3.5
