Answer:

p=0.60w

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

p ----> the price of a watermelon in dollars

w ---> the weight of a watermelon in pounds

In this problem we have a proportional relationship

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form  or  

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem

p=kw

The value of the constant of proportionality k is the same that the unit rate

Find out the unit rate

Divide the total cost by the total weight

k=4.38/7.3=0.60per lb

substitute in the equation

p=0.60w

Given this proportion, what ratio completes the equivilent proportion a/8?
Paladinen [302]
To solve this problem you must follow the steps below:

 You have a/b=8/15, Then:

 1. You must divide in both side of the given proportion by 8:

 a/bx8=8/15x8

 2. When you simplify, you obtain:

 a/8b=1/15

 3. Now, you must multiply both sides by "b", as below:

 axb/8b=1xb/15

 4. Finally, when you simplify, you have:

 a/8=b/15

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

See bolded answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1=100%, then 1.15=115%, meaning x increased by 15% is correct

Since 1=100%, then 0.15=15%, meaning 15% of x is correct

Since 1=100%, then 0.85=85%, meaning x decreased by 15% is correct
