Given:
Total number of marbles in the bag = 150
There are 21 blue marbles for every 4 white marbles.
To find:
The number of blue marbles in the bag.
Solution:
Since, there are 21 blue marbles for every 4 white marbles, therefore the ratio of blue marble to white marbles is 21:4.
Let the number of blue marbles be 21x and white marbles be 4x.
Total number of marbles in the bag = 150
Divide both sides by 25.
Now,
Therefore, the number of blue marbles is 126.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportional relationship is represented by linear function with its linear parameter "b" equal to zero. Since b is equal to zero, the line passes through the origin and the function/relation is proportional.
To verify that we divide the y coordinate over the x coordinate we obtain a constant called k, which is the slope.
For instance:
According to this function we can easily check a proportional relationship among its points:
