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.
To round a number to the nearest hundred, we count two places to the left of the decimal point, or from the last digit if the number is a whole number.
If the second digit from the last digit is upto 5, we add 1 to the preceding digit and we complete the last two numbers with zeros.
Therefore, any number from 11,950 to 12,049, will result to 12,000 when rounded to the nearest hundred.
Answer:
rs 38.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total cost of the 80 books = 80*30 = rs 2400.
He had 60 books to sell and made a 5% loss.
Thus his income from these books was 2400 - 0.05*2400 = rs 2280.
So the selling price of each book was 2280 / 60 = rs 38.
Answer:
t(d) = d/65
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for t, divide by its coefficient:
d = 65t
d/65 = 65t/65 . . divide* by 65
d/65 = t . . . . . . . simplify
Then you can write it in function form if you like:
t(d) = d/65
_____
* Of course, the rules of equality say you must divide <em>both sides</em> of the equation by the same number.
