Company B; the ratios of cost to weight are equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
In the equation, 
k is the constant of proportionality.
If the values are in accordance with , the values of k will be constant for all the values.
So we determine the values of k for both the companies and see which has a constant k.
If 
. In these tables, y is the total cost and x is the weight in lbs.
Step 2:
For company A,
when 
when 
when 
For company B,
when 
when 
when 
So company B has a constant value of 
.

Step-by-step explanation:
Catherine invested a principal of $1,650 in her bank account with;
interest rate of 3.1%
How much interest did she earn in 14 years?
To find the amount accumulated in the 14 years, we use the formula:
A = P(1 + rt)
Where A is the amount accumulated, P is the principal, r is the interest rate and t is the time.
A = $1650(1 + 
(14))
A = $1650 + $693 = $2343
Interest = Amount (A) - Principal (P) = $2343 - $1650 = $693

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
number of red pens in cup = 5
number of black pens in cup = 10
number of pen randomly selected = 3
There are 5 red pens and 10 black pens. So there are 5 + 10 = 15 pens in all.
probability of having all red pens = (5/15 x 4/14 x 3/13)
= 2/91
probability of having all black pens = (10/15 x 9/14 x 8/13)
= 24/91
probability that all pen are of same colour = 24/91 + 2/91
= 2/7
≈ 0.286
