Answer:

$y=2x$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

The proportion constant=k=2

We know that

Direct proportion: When one quantity increases then other quantity is also increase.When one quantity decreases then other quantity is also decrease.

Mathematical representation:Let one quantity= x and second quantity=y

$y\propto x$

$y=kx$

Where k= Proportionality constant

Substitute the value of k

$y=2x$

This is required equation which shows proportional relationship.

you didn't give the options but constant of proportionality is a number you have to multiply x by to get y.

y=kx is the equation that expresses the proportionality of x and y

the constant of proportionality is k, so k=2

y= kx becomes y=2x

so y = 2x should be the answer

L = loudness, in decibels (dB); I = sound intensity, in watts/m2; I0 = 10−12 watts/m2

irina [24]

The sound intensity of the Pile Driver is 39.5
or nearly 40 times the sound intensity of the jackhammer.

Given with Loudness in dB for pile driver = 112 dB
We have to convert it in terms of sound intensity.
First,
112dB/10 = 11.2

Then we'll use this as exponent of 10
(10)^(11.2) = 1.5849 * 10 ^ 11

Then use the equation of Watts per square meter to find the intensity:
I / (10^-12 W/m^2) =1.5849 * 10 ^ 11
I = sound intensity = 0.158

Then compare:

Sound intensity of Pile Driver/ Sound intensity of Jackhammer
(0.158) / (0.004)
= 39.5
or nearly 40 times the jackhammer.

he following data set shows the number of dogs counted in a local park each Saturday for 4 months. 33, 36, 31, 37, 37, 38, 31, 3

lana66690 [7]

General Idea:

To create a dot plot for a set of data we should list the data from lowest to greatest number. Then create a number line which covers all the numbers given in the data. We need to plot number of circles one above as many times based on the frequency of the data.

Applying the concept:

33, 36, 31, 37, 37, 38, 31, 37, 35, 31, 38, 32, 36, 33, 38

Listing the data in ascending order we get

31, 31, 31, 32, 33, 33, 35, 36, 36, 37, 37, 37, 38, 38, 38

We need to plot three circles above 31, one circle above 32, two circles above 33, one above 35, two above 36, three above 37, and three above 38.

Conclusion:

Out of the four options, the correct option is B because that is the only dot plot representing the given set of data.

Sadie runs a farm stand that sells blueberries and peaches. Each pound of blueberries sells for $3.25 and each pound of peaches

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

There were 14 pounds of blueberries sold and 42 pounds of peaches sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sadie sold 3 times as many pounds of peaches as pounds of blueberries, she sold more pounds of peaches, so if we multiply 3 by the number of pounds of blueberries sold, we will get the number of pounds of peaches sold, meaning pp equals 3b.

There were 14 pounds of blueberries sold and 42 pounds of peaches sold.
