Answer:

k = $0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The data that we have is:

Rocko paid: $12.50 for 25 tickets.

Louisa paid: $17.50 for 35 tickets.

Now, the question asks to find the constant of proportionality.

A proportional relation can be written as:

y = k*x

where k is the constant, and in this case, y is the price and x the number of tickets bought.

Then replacing with the values above, we have:

$12.50 = k*25

then:

k = $12.50/25 = $0.50

And the other data:

$17.50 = k*35

K = $17.50/35 = $0.50

So we have the same k in both cases, this means that the constant of proportionality is k = $0.50

i'm not all too familiar with the constant of proportionality, but both of the situations have a ratio of 0.5/1..

12.50/25 = 0.5/1

17.50/35 = 0.5/1

hopefully this can help you in some way! sorry if it doesn't

Find the value of $x$ so that the ratios are equivalent.<br><br> x:5/2 and 8:10
Scrat [10]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here what we need is that the ratios be equal, which is:

x:(5/2) = 8:10 or, what is the same:

x/(5/2) = 8/10

Lets pick the left term x/(5/2) and multiply both numerator and denominator by 2 to eliminate the fraction on the denominator:

2x/2(5/2) = 2x/5

Now, we would like to make a 10 appear on the denominator. As we already have a five we need to multiply numerator and denominator by the num that, multiplied by 5 gives as 10, this is 2:

2(2x)/2(5) = 4x / 10

So, we transformed x/(5/2)  in 4x/10, and both are the same, so we can replace it on our first equation:

4x/10 = 8/10

As both denominators are equal, we can concentrate only in numerators:

4x = 8

Dividing both sides by 4:

x = 2

So, for x=2 both ratios are equivalents.
