Why is this linear and how do you solve it?

It is linear since it has x and y with no exponents and graphs a line.

y = 3/4 x is graphed in the attached picture.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is linear because it has an input and output. The input is x and the output is y. Since there is no exponent on either, this will graph a straight line which also makes it linear.

To solve, use inverse operations to solve for y. The solutions to the equation are many and best represented on a graph.

8y = 6x

y = 6x/8

y = 3/4 x

See attached picture for the graph.

step-by-step explanation:

divide, then simplify your answer.

1. make -15.66 ÷   5.8 a fraction. then divide.

2. simplify.  

3. final answer.  

answer: 7 x 2/5 = 2.8 hours, is your answer. your welcome! : 3

step-by-step explanation: first work out how long it took to hose 1/7 of the lawn which is 2/5 hours. times that by 7 to get the whole lawn.

sorry i don't know the other answer. i didn't learn what a proportional relationship is.
