Since the amount of water is directly proportional to the number of cups of rice, we can write the relationship as a proportion:
water/cups of rice = k
where k is the constant of proportionality.
Given the point (1/2, 1), we can plug in the values into the equation:
1/2 / 1 = k
k = 1/2
So, the equation for the relationship between water and cups of rice is:
water = (1/2) * cups of rice
To find another point on the graph, we can choose any number for cups of rice and calculate the corresponding value for water.
Let's choose cups of rice = 2:
water = (1/2) * 2
water = 1
Therefore, another point on the graph is (2, 1).
The amount of water is directly proportional to the number of cups of rice. The coordinate (1/2 , 1) is on the graph of this proportional relationship. identify another point of the graph.
