Answer:

No, it is not a proportional relation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the number of guest and y represents the number of pounds of chicken made,

Given,

The number of pounds of chicken for each guest = 1,

So, the number of pounds for x guests = x,

Also, the number of pounds already made = \frac{8}{9}

Thus, the total pounds of chicken,

y=\frac{8}{9}+x

Since, a relation is called proportional if the variables are directly proportional,

That is, the line obtained by the relation passes through the origin,

Since, if x = 0, y = 0,

0=\frac{8}{9}+0

∴ Line y=\frac{8}{9}+x does not pass through the origin.

Hence, given relation is not proportional.

No, this rel. is not proportional because of the addition involved ("plus 1 lb for each guest").

A proportional rel. features mult. only.

A coach is buying snacks for 22 players at a soccer match. She pays a total of $77 to
kaheart [24]

Answer: C the price of a water bottle

Step-by-step explanation: The problem states that the energy bar is $2 so it can’t be D. The math problem also states how many players they have so it’s not B. The math problem says how much they paid which is $77 so it’s not A. However the problem doesn’t state how much the price of a water bottle is so therefore it is C.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Width =22.955 in

length =28.785 in

Step-by-step explanation:

let width=x

painting is 5.83 in taller than it is wide

length =x+5.83

Perimeter of rectangle =2 (length+width)

Perimeter of painting =103.48

2(x+x+5.83)=103.48\\2x+5.83=51.74\\2x+51.74-5.83\\2x=45.91\\x=\frac{45}{2} \\x=22.955

width =x=22.955 in

length =x+5.83=22.955+5.83=28.785 n

Which of the following events are equal? (a) A = {1,3}; (b) B = {x | x is a number on a die }; (c) C = {x | x2 −4x +3=0 }; (d) D
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which events are equal, we explicitly define the elements in each set builder.

For event A

A={1.3}

for event B

B={x|x is a number on a die}

The possible numbers on a die are 1,2,3,4,5 and 6. Hence event B is computed as

B={1,2,3,4,5,6}

for event C

C=[x|x^{2}-4x+3]\\solving  x^{2}-4x+3\\x^{2}-4x+3=0\\x^{2}-3x-x+3=0\\x(x-3)-1(x-3)=0\\x=3 or x=1

Hence the set c is C={1,3}

and for the set D {x| x is the number of heads when six coins re tossed }

In the tossing a six coins it is possible not to have any head and it is possible to have head ranging from 1 to 6

Hence the set D can be expressed as

D={0,1,2,3,4,5,6}

In conclusion, when all the set are compared only set A and set C are equal
