<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The constant of proportionality is 24

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The number of cups of sugar is directly proportional to the number of cookies made. This means that as the number of sugar cups increases, the number of cookies made will also increase.

<u>This is modeled by the equation:</u>

y = kx

where:

k is the constant of proportionality

y is the dependent variable (number of cookies)

x is the independent variable (number of cups of sugar)

<u>Now, we are give that</u> 4 cups of sugar are required to make 96 cookies. <u>Substitute with these values in the above equation and solve for k (the constant of proportionality) as follows:</u>

y = kx

96 = k*4

k = \frac{96}{4}=24

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

constant of proportionality is

k=24

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

formula

y=kx

as we can see that cookies are dependent on number of cup of sugar

number of cup of sugar are independent hence

x=number of cup of sugars=4

y=number of cookies=96

to find k

we will put values of x and y in formula

y=kx

k=y/x

k=96/4

k=24

Yuri [45]

Answer:

[See Below]

Step-by-step explanation:

✦ Turn into decimals:

  • \frac{10}{12}=0.83
  • \frac{2}{3} =0.67
  • \frac{5}{6} =0.83
  • \frac{12}{24} =0.5
  • \frac{30}{36} =0.83
  • \frac{50}{60} =0.83
  • \frac{60}{84} =0.71

So \frac{10}{12} ≈ \frac{5}{6},\frac{30}{36},and,\frac{50}{60}.

A cow can give 5 gallons of milk if it eats 2 pounds of grass. Express x in terms of y, where y is the number of gallons of milk
Crank

Answer:y=2.5 x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cow give 5 gallon of milk if it eats 2 pound of grass

i.e. it gives 2.5 gallon of milk if it eats 1 pound of grass

So we can say cow given 2.5 times of milk in gallon for each pound it eats

If cow eats x pounds of grass then it must yield 2.5 times of milk

Suppose milk is denoted by y  

therefore we can write

y=2.5 x

Therefore y=2.5 x represent the relation between grass and milk produced
