Five yards of material is needed to make
2 curtains. this represents a proportional
relationship. if the relationship (curtains,
material) were graphed, what would the
y-coordinate be if the x-coordinate was 7?
pmp

The y-coordinate would be 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

Let

y ----->material needed in yards

x ----> number of curtains

we know that

For y=5, x=2

Find the value of the constant of proportionality k

substitute the given values of x and y

The linear equation is equal to

If the x-coordinate was 7

then

substitute in the equation x=7 and solve for y

therefore

The y-coordinate would be 17.5

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
