The cost of Candy Bar 1 is displayed in the table. The proportional relationship between the cost and quantity for Candy Bar 2 is represented by the equation y = x. . Which candy bar is the cheapest cost per bar? Enter 1 for Candy Bar 1. Enter 2 for Candy Bar 2.

Answer 1

To find the cost per bar for each candy bar, we need to divide the cost by the quantity for each candy bar.

For Candy Bar 1:
Cost per bar = Cost / Quantity
For 1 candy bar, cost per bar = 1.25 / 1 = 1.25
For 2 candy bars, cost per bar = 2.50 / 2 = 1.25
For 3 candy bars, cost per bar = 3.75 / 3 = 1.25
For 4 candy bars, cost per bar = 5.00 / 4 = 1.25
For 5 candy bars, cost per bar = 6.25 / 5 = 1.25

For Candy Bar 2:
Cost per bar = Cost / Quantity
For any number of candy bars, the cost per bar will always be the same as the quantity, according to the equation y = x.

Therefore, both Candy Bar 1 and Candy Bar 2 have the same cost per bar, which is 1.25.

Answer 2

Answer 3

Apologies for the confusion. Let's calculate the cost per bar for each candy bar correctly.

For Candy Bar 1:
Cost per bar = Cost / Quantity
For 1 candy bar, cost per bar = 1.25 / 1 = 1.25
For 2 candy bars, cost per bar = 2.50 / 2 = 1.25
For 3 candy bars, cost per bar = 3.75 / 3 = 1.25
For 4 candy bars, cost per bar = 5.00 / 4 = 1.25
For 5 candy bars, cost per bar = 6.25 / 5 = 1.25

For Candy Bar 2:
Since the proportional relationship between the cost and quantity for Candy Bar 2 is represented by the equation y = x, the cost per bar for Candy Bar 2 will also be the same as the quantity.

Therefore, the correct answer is:
Candy Bar 1 has a cost per bar of 1.25, while we don't have enough information to determine the cost per bar for Candy Bar 2.
