What is the capital of Egypt? ( Cairo )

1 Answer

  1. Let’s break down the question step by step.

    1. The first equation is ( y = -4x ). This represents a linear function with a slope of -4 and no y-intercept (it crosses the origin).

    2. The second equation is ( y = -4x + 2 ). This is also a linear function with the same slope of -4 but has a y-intercept of 2, meaning it crosses the y-axis at the point (0, 2).

    Now, let’s examine the ratios of ( frac{y}{x} ):

    – For the graph of ( y = -4x ):

    – The ratio ( frac{y}{x} = frac{-4x}{x} = -4 ) (for any nonzero x).

    – For the graph of ( y = -4x + 2 ):

    – At any point on this line, the ratio ( frac{y}{x} ) changes depending on the value of x because of the constant term (+2). For example, if ( x = 1 ), ( y = -4(1) + 2 = -2 ), so ( frac{y}{x} = frac{-2}{1} = -2). If ( x = 2 ), ( y = -4(2) + 2 = -6), thus ( frac{y}{x} =
