The equation y=36x represents the relationship between (z) the number of yards and (y) the number of inches. Choose all that apply
(2,72)
(4,40)
(5,180)
(40,4)
(72,2)
(180,5)
The equation given is y = 36x, where y represents the number of inches and x represents the number of yards.
To check if the given pairs of values satisfy the equation, we substitute the value of x into the equation and see if it gives the corresponding value of y.
(2, 72): 72 = 36(2) - This is TRUE, as 72 = 72.
(4, 40): 40 = 36(4) - This is FALSE, as 40 does not equal 144.
(5, 180): 180 = 36(5) - This is TRUE, as 180 = 180.
(40, 4): 4 = 36(40) - This is FALSE, as 4 does not equal 144.
(72, 2): 2 = 36(72) - This is FALSE, as 2 does not equal 2592.
(180, 5): 5 = 36(180) - This is FALSE, as 5 does not equal 6480.
Based on the calculations, the pairs (2, 72) and (5, 180) are the only ones that satisfy the equation y = 36x.
