Question

Describe a real-life situation where you expect two quantities to be proportional. Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

Answer:

hen we put gas in our car, there is a relationship between the number of gallons of fuel that we put in the tank and the amount of money we will have to pay. In other words, the more gas we put in, the more money we’ll pay. Also, the less money we pay, the less gas we’ll put in our car. This relationship depends on the price of a gallon of gas. The price is the proportionality ratio that exists between the quantity “gallons of gas” and the quantity “money it takes to fill up.”
