Question

At the local dairy farm, Kareem buys a 32-oz container of yogurt for $2.56. Jonah buys a 6-oz container of yogurt for $0.48. Are the cost, y, in dollars and the amount of yogurt, x, proportional? Explain. Write an equation to represent this relationship.

I need the answer asap plsssssssss ty

Answer 1

Yes, y = .08x

Explanation:

Yes, because if you divide 2.56 by 32 you get .08.

If you multiply .08*6 = .48.

The equation would be y = .08x

If y is the cost and x is the amount of yogurt then this equation makes sense.

Check 32oz

y = .08(32)

y = 2.56

Hope this helps ya!!
