Answer:

1) B

2) 17 1/3

Explanation:

1)

It's B because a proportional relationship doesn't add a number at the end.

It's on y = kx, where k = 1/4 in this case.

2)

9x = 35

x = 3 8/9

6x = 17 1/3

Answers:

  1. Choice B) y = (1/4)x
  2. The unit rate is 3.89 dollars per pound. It costs 23.34 dollars for a turkey that weighs 6 pounds.

=====================================================

Explanations:

  1. Direct proportional equations are always in the form y = kx, where k is some constant. In the case of choice B, we have k = 1/4. Visually, direct proportion equations are always straight lines and go through the origin.
  2. Divide $34.99 over 9 to get 34.99/9 = 3.88777 approximately. This rounds to 3.89, so it costs $3.89 per pound. That's the unit rate. Multiply this by 6 to get 6*3.89 = 23.34 which is the cost of the 6 pound turkey.
