the total cost increases by $1.80.
The constant of proportionality is ?
An equation that relates the total cost, y, and the
number of lemons, x, is y = ? x.
Use the equation you wrote to complete the table.

Answer 1

The answer is 0.6

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

For every 3 lemons Chrissy buys at a farm stand, the total cost increases by $1.80.

cost or 1 lemon = 1.8/3 = $0.6

It means the constant of proportionality is 0.6

If there are x no of lemons, then the total cost will be given by :

y = 0.6x

Hence, this is the required solution.
