Question

The table shows information about the number of sweatshirts sold and the money collected at a fundraiser for school athletic programs.

Sweatshirts Sold 3 5 8 __ 12
Money Collected 60 _ _ 180 _

The above is supposed to be a ratio table but I am not sure on how to find out the missing numbers for the above. Please help me

Answer 1

The question is as follows:
Find the rate if money collected per sweatshirt sold. Show your work.

Use the unit rate to complete the table

Answer 2

Matt, do you have a similar question to view?

Answer 3

Use the first pair to get the ratio

60/3 = 20

So, for each pair, the 2nd value should be 20 times the 1st value.

Answer 4

So. I found out all the missing numbers.

3 sweatshirts for $60.00=$20.00 per sweatshirt

$20.00 for 1 sweatshirt x 5 sweatshirts=$100.00

$20.00 for 1 sweatshirts x 8 sweatshirts=$160.00

$20.00 for 1 sweatshirt x 9 sweatshirts=$180.00

$20.00 for 1 sweatshirts x 12 sweatshirts=$240.00

Now I have all the numbers for the table. I am confused though for the question that asks use the unit rate to complete the table.

Answer 5

The only thing I am confused a bit on is the second part of the question where it states

Use the unit rate to complete the table. The only thing I can think of is as follows:

3sweatshirts/$60.00 dollars=$0.05 for 1 sweatshirt

5 sweatshirts/$100.00=$0.05 for 1 sweatshirt.

So then the question asks. Use the unit rate to complete the table.
3 sweatshirts sold/$0.15 money collected because it would be $0.05x3=$0.15

5 sweatshirts sold/$0.25 money collected

Am I doing it right for the second way that they want the ratio table done?

Answer 6

How would you graph the information from the table or how would you explain how to graph the information from the table?

Answer 7

Thanks Steve!

Answer 8

I think you meant to send Thanks Steve! to Steve.

Ms. H would you know how you would graph the information from the table or how you would explain how to graph the information from the table?
Also if I am using the unit rate to complete the table did I do the above correctly?

Answer 9

I think I figured it out. It would be linear or on a coordinate plane

Answer 10

Matt, I would choose one on the x axis (probably the sweatshirts) and the other (money collected) on the y axis. It will be linear because they go up in a linear fashion.
