Proportional Relationships

If the variables x and y are in a proportional relationship, then:

y = kx

Where k is the constant of proportionality that can be found as follows:

k=\frac{y}{x}

If we are given a pair of values (x, y), we can find the value of k and use it to fill the rest of the table.

For example, Table 1 relates the cost y of x pounds of some items. We are given the pair (2, 2.50). We can calculate the value of k:

k=\frac{2.50}{2}=1.25

Now, for each value of x, multiply by this factor and get the value of y. For example, for x = 3:

y = 1.25 * 3 = 3.75

This value is also given and verifies the correct proportion obtained above.

For x = 4:

y = 1.25 * 4 = 5

For x = 7:

y = 1.25 * 7 = 8.75

For x = 10:

y = 1.25 * 10 = 12.50

Now for table 2, we are given the pair (3, 4.5) which gives us the value of k:

k=\frac{4.5}{3}=1.5

Apply this constant for the rest of the table.

For x = 4:

y = 1.5 * 4 = 6

For x = 5:

y = 1.5 * 5 = 7.50

For x = 8:

y = 1.5 * 8 = 12

The last column doesn't give us the value of x but the value of y, so we need to solve for x:

y=k\cdot x\text{  }=>\text{ }x=\frac{y}{k}

For y = 15:

x=\frac{15}{1.5}=10

Mr. Sanchez bought 2 magazines for $9.95 each and 1 book for $14.95. If the sales tax is 6%, what is the total cost of Mr. Sanch
Gennadij [26K]

add up the purchases

2(9.95) + 14.95

19.90 +14.95

34.85

now find the sales tax

34.85 * .06 =2.091 = 2.09  (round to 2 decimal places with money)

add the purchases and the sales tax to get the total amount

34.85 + 2.09

$36.94

After a baby was born, he began to gain weight at a rate of 1.5 pounds per month. The
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

W(t) = 10 + 1.5*t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The weight gain of the baby is 1.5 pounds per month.

After 4 months, baby's weight = 16 pounds

Let us the say the weight of the baby when it was born be x.

Then:

x + 1.5*(4) = 16

x = 10

Then weight of the baby as a function of number of months(t) will be=

initial weight + incremental weight per month*no of months(t).

W(t) = 10 + 1.5*t
