Answer:
James invested $160,000
Step-by-step explanation:
- In total, they needed $480,000 to start the business
- 1:2 ratio means one of them payed double the amount than the other
so the expression would be,
2x + x = 480,000
Let x represent how much they each need to invest
the expression can be simplified to,
3x = 480,000
now you need to get x alone, this would be done be dividing both sides by 3
James invest $160,000
Michael invest $160,000 x 2 = $320,000
and if you add them together, you get the total amount
$320,000 + $160,000 = $480,000

Given:
The price of bananas can be determined by the equation P=0.25n, where P is the price and n is the number of bananas.
To find:
The constant of proportionality
Solution:
We have,
...(i)
where P is the price and n is the number of bananas.
Price P is directly proportional to the number of bananas. So,
...(ii)
Where, k is the constant of proportionality.
On comparing (i) and (ii), we get
Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 0.25.
