Question

I WILL GIVE YOU ALL MY POINTS IF YOU ANSWER THIS QUESTION PLEASE

For the situation below determine the independent value, the dependent value, and the constant of proportionality for both ratios. Confirm your calculations by setting up a proportion with the two ratios and then cross-multiplying.

A package of 7 steaks costs $44.10. A package of 11 steaks costs $69.30.

Answer 1

Explanation:

(x)7 steak(dependent variable) = $44.10

(y)11 steak(independant variable)=$69.30

y=kx

11/7=1.57142857143

reduce that to 3 decimal spaces

y=1.57x

y=1.57(7)

11=1.57(7)

or

cross multiply
`(7)/(44.10) \\eq (11)/(69.30)`

7 × $69.30 and 11 × $44.10

and get 485.1 for both
