Aurora is a hair stylist. When Aurora colors Lilia's hair, she mixes two shades of hair dye: brandy and mocha. The ratio of ounces of brandy-colored hair dye to ounces of mocha-colored hair dye is 4:3.
Plot two points to graph the line that shows the proportional relationship between the ounces of brandy-colored hair dye and the ounces of mocha-colored hair dye that Aurora uses to color Lilia's hair.
- can you explain this question to me? I don't understand it.
Sure! This question is asking you to graph a proportional relationship between the amount of brandy-colored hair dye and mocha-colored hair dye that Aurora uses to color Lilia's hair.
In this case, the ratio of brandy-colored hair dye to mocha-colored hair dye is 4:3. This means that for every 4 ounces of brandy-colored hair dye Aurora uses, she also uses 3 ounces of mocha-colored hair dye.
To graph this relationship, you can plot two points on a graph. One point could be (4,3) which represents 4 ounces of brandy-colored hair dye and 3 ounces of mocha-colored hair dye. Another point could be (8,6) which also represents a proportional relationship, as 8 is double 4 and 6 is double 3 in the ratio of 4:3.
By plotting these two points and connecting them with a line, you are showing the proportional relationship between the ounces of brandy-colored hair dye and mocha-colored hair dye that Aurora uses to color Lilia's hair.
so which numbers do i plot?
To plot the two points for the proportional relationship between brandy-colored and mocha-colored hair dye, you can use the ratio of 4:3.
One point you can plot is (4, 3). This means that for 4 ounces of brandy-colored hair dye, Aurora would use 3 ounces of mocha-colored hair dye.
Another point you can plot is (8, 6). This represents a doubling of the amounts from the first point while maintaining the same ratio of 4:3.
So the two points to plot on the graph would be (4, 3) and (8, 6). Connect these two points with a line to show the proportional relationship between the amounts of brandy-colored and mocha-colored hair dye used by Aurora.
