At a carnival game is cost Kennedy $30 to toss 78 rings. Fill out the table of equivalent ratios

Question

Tosses Dollars
13 _____
78 30
______ 50

Answer 1

To find the cost for 13 tosses, we can set up a proportion:

78 tosses = $30
13 tosses = $x

(13 / 78) = (x / 30)
13/78 = x/30
13 * 30 = 78x
390 = 78x
x = 5

So, for 13 tosses, it would cost $5.

Now, to find how much it would cost for 50 tosses, we can set up a proportion:

78 tosses = $30
50 tosses = $y

(50 / 78) = (y / 30)
50/78 = y/30
50 * 30 = 78y
1500 = 78y
y = 19.23

So, for 50 tosses, it would cost $19.23.

The completed table of equivalent ratios is:

Tosses Dollars
13 $5
78 $30
50 $19.23
