I have done this (see attached workings) but cannot get any of the solutions you've provided. I have even graphed the two functions, and the points of intersection concur with my workings (see attached graph).
Answer:
6.75 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is of direct variation. We will use x as our answer. 8 is 2/3 of 12, so 4.5 should be 2/3 of x. We can now make an equation.
In order to solve the equation, we multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3, which is 3/2.
* stands for multiplication
From solving our equation, we get 6.75. We can't forget the units, so the answer is 6.75 pounds.
