ACT help!!

the cost of apples is directly proportional to the number of pounds of apples purchased. If 5.5 pounds of apples cost $10.89, which of the following equations represents the relationship between cost, c, and weight, w?
f) c=0.5w
g) c=1.98w
h) c= w+5.39
j) w= 1.98c
k) c= w/1.98

i think the answer is h but i’m confused so i’m not sure

Answer 1

g) c=1.98w is your answer

w = weight = 5.5

c = cost = 10.89

10.89 = 1.98(5.5)

10.89 = 10.89 (true)

hope this helps
