Question

Nicole's birthday party will cost $72 if she invites 36 guests. If there are 79 guests, how much will Nicole's birthday party cost? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.

Answer 1

$72 is to 36 as x is to 79

$72/ 36 = x/ 79

cross multiply 72 and 79 to get 5,688

then take the 5,688 and divide it by 36 to get an answer of 158


if there are 79 guests, nicole’s party will cost $158.

Answer 2

Answer:

$158

Step-by-step explanation:

So 76/36=2

it will cost $2 per guest.

79*2=158
