Question

The point (x,y) is proportional to the point (2, 5).Select all the true statements.5(x, y) is a solution to y=3x:0 (x, y) is a solution to y=x+3.The ratio of is equivalent toPoint (x,y) is the same point as (5,2).A straight line through points (2,5) and (x, y) will pass through the origin.

Answer 1

Since all the points proportional to (2,5) follow the equation 2y = 5x, (x,y) is a solution to y=5/2x

Accordingly 2y= 5x is the same as y/x = 5/2 . Since the equation y = 5/2x is a line with y-intercept equal to 0 , there is a line which passes through points (x,y) and (2,5). The true statements are: first, third and fifth statements.
