Answer:
- 3/2
- it is the ratio of oil to vinegar in the dressing
- y = 3/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The table can be filled in like this:
- (x, y)
- (0, 0)
- (2, 3)
- (4, 6)
- (6, 9)
The constant of proportionality is the ratio of y to x:
k = 3/2
__
2. The meaning of the constant of proportionality is just what it is defined to mean: the ratio of oil to vinegar in the dressing.
__
3. The equation is y=kx, where k is the value in part 1:
y = (3/2)x

We can use the system of equations:x + y = 217x - y = 85-----------------From the 2nd equation: y = x - 85x + x - 85 = 2172 x = 217 + 852 x = 302x = 302 : 2x = 151y = 217 - 151y = 66We can prove this solution:151 + 66 = 2017 and 151 - 66 = 85.Answer: those numbers are 151 and 66.
