In this problem we have

This is the equation of the line in slope intercept form

where

The given equation not represent a proportional relationship, because the line not pass through the origin

In 3 apples cost 48¢ , how many dozen apples can be bougth for $3.84?
Law Incorporation [45]

1 dozen = 12 apples.

3 apples cost 0.48, multiply that by 4 to get the price of 1 dozen.

0.48 x 4 = $1.92 per dozen.


Divide the total you can spend ( 3.84) by cost per dozen:


3.48 / 1.92 = 2


You can buy 2 dozen.
