Which equation represents a proportional relationship that has a constant of proportionality equal to 4/5 a) y=x+4/5 b) y=4/5x c) xy = 4/5 d) x+y=4/5

Option B) y=4/5x

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

we have that

case A) y=x+4/5

The line does not passes through the origin, is not a proportional relationship

case B) y=(4/5)x

The line passes through the origin ---->represents a proportional relationship

The slope m is equal to the constant of proportionality k

The slope m=4/5

therefore

The line  y=4/5x

Represents a proportional relationship that has a constant of proportionality equal to 4/5

case C) xy=4/5

Represent an inverse variation is not a proportional relationship

case D) x+y=(4/5)

The line does not passes through the origin, is not a proportional relationship

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
