17.5 Y

21y= 682.5

ANOTHER WAY TO SOLVE IT IS...

Y=kx

17.5=k*21

.833=k

Sooooo

Y=kx

Y=.833*39

Y=32.5

direct proportion y=kx , k is constant and k does not equal to 0.

17.5=k(21)

k=5/6

when x =39

y=5/6 ×39

y=32.5

An artist needs to purchase jars of paint. The table shows Which quantity container is the better buy?
frutty [35]

Answer:8-oz jar

First, we have to find out what is the unit rate of the 2-oz jar. $1.50÷2 is $.75.

Second, we have to find the unit rate of the 4-oz jar. $2.92÷4=$73.

Third, we have to find the unit rate of the 8-oz jar. $5.68=$.71.

Fourth, we have to find the unit rate of the 16-oz jar. The division for this one may be tricky. From dividing $11.62 by 16, is stopped at the 3rd number I got from dividing. I got $.726. This is not a value of cents and the value can't go in the thousandths place. So, I rounded .726. I got $.73. So $11.62÷16=$.73.

Lastly, you have to compare the amounts.

The lowest amount or better buy, is $.71 or 8-oz jar.
