Question

A unicorn daycare center requires there to be 2 supervisors for every 18 baby unicorns. Write an equation that shows the relationship between nnn, the number of supervisors, and uuu, the number of baby unicorns. Please note that this is a magical daycare center, so fractional supervisors are allowed.

Answer 1

Answer:

n = (1/9)u

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

n = (1/9)u

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a direct variation relationship of the form

n = ku

For n = 2, u = 18.

2 = k * 18

We solve for k.

k = 2/18

k = 1/9

Now we use k in the equation of the relationship.

n = (1/9)u
