Question

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!!

You use a garden hose to fill a wading pool. If the water level rises 11 centimeters every 4 minutes
and you record the data point of (8.y), what is the value of y? Use slope to justify your answer.
The rate of change at which the water level rises is centimeters per minute. So, solving the
equation
for y gives a y-value equal to
(Type integers or fractions. Simplify your answers.)

Answer 1

I’m not sure but I’m pretty sure I think it’s 11/4 = y/8b making a guess but I tried

Answer 2

The rate of change at which the water level rises is 11/4 centimeters per minute. So, solving the equation y/8 = 11/4 for y gives a y-value equal to 22.

In Mathematics and Geometry, a proportional relationship is a type of relationship that passes through the origin (0, 0) and produces equivalent ratios as represented by the following mathematical equation:

y = kx

Where:

• y represents the y-variable​.
• x represents the x-variable.
• k is the constant of proportionality.

Next, we would determine the constant of proportionality (k) by using various data points as follows:

Constant of proportionality, k = y/x

Constant of proportionality, k = 11/4

Constant of proportionality, k = 2.75.

Therefore, the required linear equation that represents the proportional relationship is given by;

y = kx

y = 11/4(x)

4y = 11x

y/x = 11/4

When x is 8, the equation to solve for the y-value is given by;

y/8 = 11/4

y = 88/4

y = 22
