The manager of a local shopping center estimates there are 2,564 people who enter the shopping center each weekday during the holiday season. The center is open from 9 a. c. to 10 p. m. each weekday. Assuming the number of people entering the shopping center each hour is consistent, what is the constant of proportionality? Explain what the constant represents in the context of the situation.

answer:

what is your question that you ask

step-by-step explanation:

in the attachment.   i didn't see your choices.   the word which means there is choices.

step-by-step explanation:

(x,y)

x tells you how much left or right you go from the origin

y tells you how much down or up you go from the origin

so for example (-3,2), you go left 3 and up twice. i denoted which of the ordered pairs is which in my graph.

move it to the other side

step-by-step explanation:

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
