To determine which two ratios form a proportion, we must check if the cross-products are equal. In other words, for two ratios \( \frac{a}{b} \) and \( \frac{c}{d} \), they form a proportion if \( a \times d = b \times c \).

Let's analyze the given pairs:

  1. 204 and 15

    • Not clear, let’s skip this.
  2. 20 fourths and 1 fifth

    • This can be expressed as:
      • \( 20 \div 4 = 5 \) (so "20 fourths" = 5)
      • \( 1 \div 5 = 0.2 \) (so "1 fifth" = 0.2)
    • The ratio is \( 5:0.2 \).
  3. 420 and 15

    • Again, not clear, let’s skip this.
  4. 4 over 20 and 1 fifth

    • Expressing these as fractions:
      • \( \frac{4}{20} = \frac{1}{5} \)
      • Ratio = \( \frac{1}{5} \)
  5. 420 and 25

    • Not as clear. Let’s check.
  6. 4 over 20 and 2 fifths

    • \( \frac{4}{20} = \frac{1}{5} \) and \( 2 \div 5 = 0.4 \).
  7. 204 and 25

    • Not clear, let’s skip.
  8. 20 fourths and 2 fifths

    • \( 20 \div 4 = 5 \) and \( 2 \div 5 = 0.4 \).

So, out of the options after analyzing, we check the pairs:

  • Out of 4 over 20 and 1 fifth is equal, therefore it forms a proportion as:

\[ 4 \times 5 = 20 \] \[ 20 \times 1 = 20 \]

Thus, the correct option is 4 over 20 and 1 fifth forming a proportion.

To determine the unit cost per candy bar, you need to find the cost of one candy bar by dividing the total cost by the total number of candy bars.

Question 1:

Which process will you use to solve this problem?

  • The correct option is: 350 ÷ 1000 (350 divided by 1000)

Question 2:

What is the unit cost per candy bar? Now, let's calculate it:

  • Total cost = $350
  • Number of candy bars = 1000

The unit cost per candy bar can be calculated as follows:

\[ \text{Unit cost} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of candy bars}} = \frac{350}{1000} = 0.35 \]

Thus, the unit price is $0.35 per candy bar.

To find the ascent rate in kilometers per hour for the hiker, you need to divide the distance ascended by the time taken.

Question 1:

What process will you use to solve this problem?

  • The correct option is: 34 ÷ 116 (3 fourths divided by 1 over 16)

This reflects finding how many kilometers per hour by dividing the distance (in kilometers) by the time (in hours).

Question 2:

Now, let's calculate the ascent rate:

  1. Distance ascended: \( \frac{3}{4} \) kilometers
  2. Time taken: \( \frac{1}{16} \) hours

To find the ascent rate, we perform the division:

\[ \text{Ascent rate} = \frac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{16}} \]

To divide by a fraction, we multiply by its reciprocal:

\[ \text{Ascent rate} = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{16}{1} = \frac{3 \times 16}{4 \times 1} = \frac{48}{4} = 12 \text{ kilometers per hour} \]

Thus, the mountain hiker's ascent rate is 12 kilometers per hour.

To determine the cost per muffin, you need to divide the total cost by the total number of muffins.

Question 1:

What process will you use to solve this problem?

  • The correct option is: 9 ÷ (3 × 12) (9 divided by open paren 3 times 12 close paren)

This is because you need to first calculate the total number of muffins (which is 3 dozen, or \(3 \times 12\)) and then divide the total cost ($9) by that number.

Question 2:

Now, let's calculate the cost per muffin:

  1. Total cost: $9.00
  2. Total number of muffins: \(3 , \text{dozen} = 3 \times 12 = 36 , \text{muffins}\)

Now, calculate the cost per muffin:

\[ \text{Cost per muffin} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Total number of muffins}} = \frac{9}{36} \]

Now simplify \( \frac{9}{36} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25 \).

Thus, the cost per muffin is $0.25 per muffin.

To determine which equations represent non-proportional relationships, we need to understand that a proportional relationship can be expressed in the form \(y = kx\), where \(k\) is a constant. Non-proportional relationships either have a constant added or subtracted (which results in a y-intercept different from zero), or involve other non-linear functions.

Let's analyze the provided equations:

  1. \(y = \frac{2}{3}x\): This is a proportional relationship (the y-intercept is 0).

  2. \(y = -15x\): This is also a proportional relationship (the y-intercept is 0).

  3. \(y = 4.08x\): This is a proportional relationship (the y-intercept is 0).

  4. \(y = 5x - 9\): This is non-proportional because of the \(-9\) (the y-intercept is not 0).

  5. \(y = 10x + 10\): This is non-proportional because of the \(+10\) (the y-intercept is not 0).

  6. \(y = x^2\): This is non-proportional because it is a quadratic equation (not a linear relationship).

Summary

The three equations that represent non-proportional relationships are:

  • \(y = 5x - 9\)
  • \(y = 10x + 10\)
  • \(y = x^2\)

So the final answer is:

  1. \(y = 5x - 9\)
  2. \(y = 10x + 10\)
  3. \(y = x^2\)
