Question

The graph below shows the relationship between the amount of peanuts and the amount of chocolate in different packages of snack mix for each ounce of peanuts? A.1/2 B.2/3 C.3/4 D.3/2 please i need answers !!!!

Answer 1

Option (B)

Explanation:

Since the linear graph is passing through the origin, there is a proportional relationship between the amount of chocolate (C) and amount of peanuts (P) used in the package of snacks mix,

P ∝ C

P = kC

k =
`(P)/(C)`

Here k = proportionality constant

Since, the given line passes through a point (3, 2),

k =
`(2)/(3)`

Therefore, ratio of chocolate and peanuts mixed is
`(2)/(3)`.

Option (B) is the correct option.
