Number of bags per site tested before 2012 based on study it dropped by 62% down to 80 bags per site in 2012 is 129 (approximately).

As given,

In 2012, bag per site tested dropped by 62%

Let n be the number of bags per site before 2012

As per condition,

62% of n = 80

⇒(62/100) × n = 80

⇒ n = (80 × 100)/62

      = 129.03

      ≈ 129

Therefore, number of bags per site tested before 2012 based on study it dropped by 62% down to 80 bags per site in 2012 is 129 (approximately).

Match the real-world problem to its constant of proportionality.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

a. $18.36 for 3 pizzas  :  k  = 6.12

b. $4.17 for 3 pounds of bananas .   k  = 1.39

c. $16.48 for 4 pounds of potatoes .  k  = 4.12

d. 2 cups of flour to make 24 cookie .  k  = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

PROPORTIONALITY:

Two quantities x and y are said to proportional to each other

if for x ∝ y , x = y k.

Here, k is called the PROPORTIONALITY CONSTANT.

⇒x \propto y \implies k = \frac{x}{y}  

Now, for the given quantities:

a.  $18.36 for 3 pizzas [box]    

Here, k = \frac{x}{y} = \frac{18.36}{3}  = 6.12

So, the proportionality constant is 6.12.

b. $4.17 for 3 pounds of bananas [box]

Here, k = \frac{x}{y} = \frac{4.17}{3}  = 1.39

So, the proportionality constant is 1.39.

c. $16.48 for 4 pounds of potatoes [box]

Here, k = \frac{x}{y} = \frac{16.48}{4}  = 4.12

So, the proportionality constant is 4.12.

d. 2 cups of flour to make 24 cookies

Here,  k = \frac{x}{y} = \frac{24}{2}  = 12

So, the proportionality constant is 12.
