Question

Which equation represents the ordered pairs in the table? Х у 6 2 12 4 18 6

Answer 1

From the table, we have the following:

`(y)/(x)=(2)/(6)=(4)/(12)=(6)/(18)=(1)/(3)`

Thus, we have that:

`(y)/(x)=(1)/(3)\Rightarrow y=(x)/(3)\Rightarrow y=(1)/(3)x`

We obtain this result if we multiply both sides of the equation by x.

Therefore, the result is:

`y=(1)/(3)x`

The answer is the third option.
