Answer:

Yes it is. Y=2.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

So, lets start with bthe first values of the table and work our way down:

2x=5y

Lets just divide both sides by the 2:

x=5/2y

This means that for every 1 x, there should be 5/2y's.

Or, for every 1 x, there should be 2.5ys.

Lets check the next few to see if thats correct:

3x=7.5y

Divide both sides by 3:

x=7.5/3

This means for every one x, there are again, 2.5ys.

Lets check one more just to be sure:

4x=10y

Divide both sides by 4:

x=10/4

This means for everyone one x, y equals 2.5ys, yet again,

So we can conclude that the poprotional relationship between x and y is:

When x equals 1, y=2.5

Or

Y=2.5x

Hope this helps!

Answer:

A unit rate is the rate of change in a relationship where the rate is per 1.

The rate of change is the ratio between the x and y (or input and output) values in a relationship.  Another term for the rate of change for proportional relationships is the constant of proportionality.

If the rate of change is yx, then so is the constant of proportionality.  To simplify things, we set  yx=k, where k represents the constant of proportionality.  

If you solve a yx=k equation for y, (like this: y=kx), it is called a direct variation equation. In a direct variation equation, y varies directly with x. When x increases or decreases, y also increases or decreases by the same proportion.

To find y in a direct variation equation, multiply x by the constant of proportionality, k.

For example: Given the relationship y=7x, the constant of proportionality k=7,  so if x=3,  then y=3×7 or 21.

Given the same relationship, if x=7,  then y=7×7, or 49.

Jenny and her children went to the SeaWorld.She purchased adult ticket for herself and children tickets for her 2 boys. Tickets
dangina [55]

Given:

She purchased adult ticket for herself and children tickets for her 2 boys.

Cost of one adult ticket = $39.99

Cost of one child ticket = $19.99

To find:

The expression to represent the total cost of the tickets Jenny purchased.

Solution:

Let x represent the number of adult ticket purchase

and y represent the number of child tickets purchase.

Cost of one adult ticket = $39.99

Cost of one child ticket = $19.99

Total cost = 39.99x + 19.99y

Therefore, the expression for total cost is 39.99x + 19.99y.

She purchased one adult ticket and 2 child tickets.

Substitute x=1 and y=2 in the above expression.

Total cost = 39.99(1) + 19.99(2)

               = 39.99 + 39.98

               = 79.97

Therefore, the required expression to represent the total cost of the tickets Jenny purchased is 39.99(1) + 19.99(2) and total cost is $79.97.
