You line them up from smallest to greatest
Answer:
It represents a function because it consists of x-intercept and y-intercept hence can be plotted.

How many pieces of gum are in 4 packages of gum?"
Using a proportional function, there are 60 pieces of gum in 4 packages.
<h3>What is a proportional relationship?</h3>
Two values x and y are said to be in a proportional relationship if x=ky, where x and y are variables and k is a constant.
The constant k is called constant of proportionality.
The constant is given by:
k = 15/1
k = 30/2
k = 45/3
k = 15.
Therefore, the number of pieces of gums in x packages is given by:
y = 15x.
In 4 packages:
y = 15 x 4
y = 60 pieces of gum.
Using a proportional function, there are 60 pieces of gum in 4 packages.

Another way is to note that there are <span><span>(<span>104</span>)</span><span>(<span>104</span>)</span></span> (“10 choose 4”) ways to select 4 balls from a collection of 10. If 4 of those 10 balls are “special” in some way (in this case, “special” = “red”), then the number of ways to choose 4 special balls is <span><span>(<span>44</span>)</span><span>(<span>44</span>)</span></span>. (The factor of <span><span>(<span>60</span>)</span><span>(<span>60</span>)</span></span> is included to convey that, after choosing 4 special balls, we choose none of the 6 non-special balls.) This line of reasoning gives the second expression.
