Answer:

Shirt : Pant = 2 : 3 , & Pant : Shirt = 3 : 2 , Linear model can be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of ' Number of shirts sold : Number of items sold' = 2 : 5

Let the common ratio be = x

Then, number of shirts sold = 2x. And, number of total items sold = 5x.

So, number of pants sold = Number of items sold - number of shirts sold = 5x - 2x = 3x

So, shirt to pant ratio = 2x / 3x = 2 : 3 .And, pant to shirt ratio = 3 : 2

This model can be shown in linear equation, as all are linear powered.
