Answer:

i) Number of people in club = 12

ii) 96 ounces of fruit punch for 12people

iii) 24 ounces of cheese for 12 people

iv) Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $7.87

Step-by-step explanation:

We are not given the options for the equations that could represent the quantities and constraints in this situation. We can tell we are to represent the information given above.

Number of people in the club = 12

8 ounces of fruit punch per person

For 12 people = 12×8 = 96 ounces of fruit punch

2 ounces of cheese per person

For 12 people = 12×2 = 24 ounces of cheese

A package of cheese = 16 ounces

The costs for 1package = $3.99

The costs for 16 ounces of cheese = $3.99

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = (24×3.99)/16 = 5.985

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = $5.99

One-gallon jug of fruit punch = 128 ounces

The cost of One-gallon jug of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs of 128 ounces of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = (96×2.5)/128 = 1.875

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = $1.88

Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $5.99 + $1.88 = $7.87

Cost per item for x number of people:

y = x(2.5/128) + x (3.99/16)

y = x(0.0195) + x(0.2494)

Cost equation for Priya's budget:

y = 96x(2.5/128) + 24x (3.99/16)

y = 96x(0.0195) + 24x(0.2494)

Since the total number of people to attend the meeting is 12, the constraint = 0≤x≤12

A horse ran 800 meters in 40 seconds , 1200 meters in 60 seconds , and 480 meters in 24 seconds . Is this a proportional relatio
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

This is a proportional relationship, the constant of proportionality is 20m/s and it represents that the horse can run 20 meters every second.  

Equation:  d = 20s, where d=distance and s=number of seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out whether this relationship is proportional, you need to see if the rate at which the horse runs is constant (the same).  If you look at the three sets of data (24, 480), (40, 800) and (60, 1200) where the pair is (seconds, meters), you can see that for any two sets of data the change in meters divided by the change in seconds is consistently 20m/s.  For example:

\frac{1200-800}{60-40}=\frac{400}{20}=20

Since the constant is 20, we know that the horse can run 20 meters every second.  To find the horse's total distance, we need to multiply the rate by the number of seconds that it runs:

d = 20s
