Determine if the quantities in the data table are in a proportional relationship if the quantities have a proportional relationship answer 1!if the quantities do not have a proportional relationship answer 2 Pounds of bananas 2,3,5,7 2 pounds cost 2.50 3pounds cost 3.75 5 pounds cost 6.25 7pounds cost 8.75
To determine if the quantities in the data table have a proportional relationship, we can check if the ratios of pounds of bananas to cost for each pair of values are consistent.
For the first pair:
2 pounds cost $2.50, so the ratio is 2.50/2 = 1.25
For the second pair:
3 pounds cost $3.75, so the ratio is 3.75/3 = 1.25
For the third pair:
5 pounds cost $6.25, so the ratio is 6.25/5 = 1.25
For the fourth pair:
7 pounds cost $8.75, so the ratio is 8.75/7 ≈ 1.25
Since the ratio is consistently 1.25 for all pairs, the quantities in the data table have a proportional relationship. Therefore, the answer is 1.
To determine if the quantities in the data table have a proportional relationship, we can compare the ratios of the quantities on both sides of the table. In a proportional relationship, the ratios should be equal.
Let's calculate the ratios for each row of the table:
Row 1: Pounds of bananas = 2, Cost = $2.50
Row 2: Pounds of bananas = 3, Cost = $3.75
Row 3: Pounds of bananas = 5, Cost = $6.25
Row 4: Pounds of bananas = 7, Cost = $8.75
Now, let's calculate the ratios for each row by dividing the cost by the pounds of bananas:
Row 1: $2.50 / 2 = $1.25
Row 2: $3.75 / 3 = $1.25
Row 3: $6.25 / 5 = $1.25
Row 4: $8.75 / 7 = $1.25
As we can see, all the ratios are equal to $1.25. Therefore, the quantities in the data table have a proportional relationship, and the answer is 1.
To determine if the quantities in the data table have a proportional relationship, we need to check if the ratio between the pounds of bananas and their cost is consistent.
Let's calculate the ratios for each entry:
For 2 pounds of bananas: 2.50 / 2 = 1.25
For 3 pounds of bananas: 3.75 / 3 = 1.25
For 5 pounds of bananas: 6.25 / 5 = 1.25
For 7 pounds of bananas: 8.75 / 7 = 1.25
Since the ratios are all the same (1.25), it means that the quantities have a proportional relationship.
Therefore, the answer is 1.
