Answer:

a) $0.83

b) k = 1.205

c) In the context of this problem, k means

The number of chocolate chip cookies increases as the price increases because number of chocolate chip cookie is directly proportional to its price

Step-by-step explanation:

Sara has opened her own bakery, where customers can buy three chocolate chip cookies for $2.49.

a. What is the unit price?

The unit price means the cost of 1 cookie

Hence:

3 chocolate chip cookies = $2.49

1 chocolate chip cookies = x

3x = $2.49 × 1

x = $2.49 × 1/3

x = $0.83

Hence, the unit price = $0.83

b. What is the constant of proportionality, or k?

Chocolate chip cookie ∝ Price

Chocolate chip cookie is directly proportional to the Price

C = kP

Where k is constant of proportionality

k = Chocolate chip cookie/Price

k = C/P

Hence,

k = 3/2.49

k = 1.2048192771

k = 1.205

c. In a complete sentence, explain what k means in the context of this problem.

In the context of this problem, k means

The number of chocolate chip cookies increases as the price increases because number of chocolate chip cookie is directly proportional to its price
