Set up an equation for each store by multiplying the cost of the basketball by the number of basketballs bought (b) and add the cost of the hoop:

Hoops House: total = 20b + 200

Baller Basement: total = 15b + 250

Now to solve for b, set the two equations equal to each other:

20b + 200 = 15b + 250

Subtract 15b from both sides:

5b + 200 = 250

Subtract 200 from both sides:

5b = 50

Divide both sides by 5:

B = 10

The answer is 10 basketballs

What is the constant of proportionality between y/x
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the constant of proportionality between y/x you investigate the trend in values of x with corresponding values of y

For this case, when x =1, y=3.5

                       when x=2, y=7

                       

Taking in case 1, y/x = 3.5/1 = 3.5

In case 2, y/x= 7/2 = 3.5

But you know that the constant of proportionality k is given by;

y=kx------------------------making k subject of formula

y/x=k

Hence in this case, your constant of proportionality is 3.5
