Answer 1

STEP - BY - STEP EXPLANATION

What to find?

The function that reflects the given ratios given.

Given:

For every eight guests, 2 orders.

To determine the function;

Let y be the number of orders and x be the number of guests.

If for every eight guest, there must be 2 orders, then we will have;

$y=\frac{1}{4}x$

So that, if there are 8 guests, that is; when x=8

$y=\frac{1}{4}(8)=2$

ANSWER

y= 1/4 x
