Question

If the relationship between horses, x, and donkeys, y, in an animal sanctuary is proportional, and there are 1,000 horses and 1,500 donkeys, which equation represents the relationship between horses and donkeys?

Answer 1

the total number of donkeys is 1,500 and the total number of horses is 1,000.

the ratio between donkeys and horses is therefore: y / x = 1500 / 1000 = 1.5

the equation representing the proportional relationship between horses (x) and donkeys (y) would be: y=1,5x
