2500 X 15 = 37500
37500 ÷ 100 = 375
375 + 200 = 575
The answer is C.

The easiest way to answer this question is by going through each answer one by one:
14:6 = 28:18
28 <span>÷ 14 = 2
</span>18 <span>÷ 6 = 3
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by different numbers, we can establish that this is not a true proportion.
42:7 = 6:2
42 ÷ 7 = 6
7 ÷ 7 = 1
42:7 = 6:1
By dividing both numbers by the same number, we can establish that the answer is wrong.
2:3 = 3:2
This is obviously wrong. That is because, in ratios, the order counts. So the first 3 is more than the first 2, therefore the second number on the other side of the ratio should be more than the first.
3:5 = 12:20
12 <span>÷ 3 = 4
</span>20 <span>÷ 5 = 4
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by the same number, this is a true proportion.
The answer is D.
3 3/4 lb of candy costs $ 20.25
we have been given a mixed fraction with both whole number and fraction
so lets convert it an improper fraction
3 3/4
3 wholes are equivalent to 
then 3 3/4 is - 
so 15/4 lbs -- $ 20.25
then 1 lb is -- 
therefore 1 lb is equal to $ 5.40
Answer:
the constant of proportionality is the ratio between two directly proportional quantities.
b. k=y/x or y = k*1/x
Answer:
Newton's 2nd Law says that an object accelerates if there is a net (unbalanced) force on it. Looking at the wagon in the diagram above, you can see that there is just one force exerted on the wagon - the force that the horse exerts on it. The wagon accelerates because the horse pulls on it!
