If the equation is in y = k*x form, then we have a direct proportional relationship between x and y. In this case, y = (1/5)*x is in the form y = k*x where k = 1/5. So this equation is proportional. The constant of proportionality is k = 1/5
In terms of a graph, you can tell if it has the following properties:
1) The graph goes through the origin (0,0) which is where the x and y axis cross
2) The graph is a straight line
You should find that graphing y = (1/5)x will satisfy both properties above, so that will visually confirm you have the right answer. The graph is shown in the attached image. The red line represents the graph of the equation. The red line goes through (0,0) and (5,1), which are point A and point B respectively.
Answer: Ken Should have moved 9 units to the right because his prediction for May is 9°C. Moving to the left part of the number line would take Ken into negative degrees. 9°C is warmer than 7°C. Therefore, Ken should have moved 9 units to the right of the number line instead of 2 units to the left.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
It will cost $427.04 to paint deck and it will cost 958.485 to add fencing around deck
Step-by-step explanation:
Diameter of swimming pool = 27 feet
Radius of pool r=
Surrounding the pool is a deck that extends 5 feet from the edges of the pool
Outer radius R = 13.5+5=18.5
Area of deck = Outer area - Inner area
Area of deck =
Area of deck = 
Area of deck = 
Cost of painting 1 sq.feet = $0.85
Cost of painting 502.4 sq.feet = 
Perimeter of deck = 
Cost of fencing 1 foot = $8.25
Cost of fencing 116.18 foot = 
Hence it will cost $427.04 to paint deck and it will cost 958.485 to add fencing around deck
Answer: $135
Step-by-step explanation: 48% of $355 would be 170 so therefore the $135 would be the cheaper penalty
