Does the equation y = 7.2x represents a direct proportion?

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression

------- expressing the relationship between y and x

one way to know if the expression shows a direct proportionality is to answer the question, does y increase if x increases?

let us plug two values for x and see what happens to y

for x=3

y=7.2(3)

y=21.6

for x=4

y=7.2(4)

y=28.8

for x= 2

y=7.2(2)

y=14.4

From our observations when  x increases the value of y increases and vice versa, hence there exist a direct proportionality

2/3x + 7 = 29

step-by-step explanation:

two thirds = 2/3

plus a number = x

at least 29 = 29

there for you should get 2/3x + 7 = 29
