Week 3 - Math 8 - Assessment
Given the table for x, tickets sold and y, money earned:
✗# of tickets sold
9 ☐ 8 5 7
y - $ earned
48
108
96
60
60
84
Every ticket sold is
☑ dollars earned. This is called a
The relationship is
$0 earned.
POSSIBLE POINTS: 14.29
☑ because there is a constant
☑ and 0 tickets sold means
no money earned. This relationship between the number of tickets sold and the money earned is called a proportional relationship.
To find the constant of proportionality, we can divide the money earned by the number of tickets sold:
48/9 = 5.33
108/8 = 13.5
96/5 = 19.2
60/7 = 8.57
84/7 = 12
The values are not consistent, which means there is likely an error in the table or the data provided.
