To determine if the quantities in the given data table are in a proportional relationship, we can examine the ratios of hours to money.
The ratios from the table are:
- For 1 hour and $9: \( \frac{1}{9} \)
- For 2 hours and $18: \( \frac{2}{18} = \frac{1}{9} \)
- For 3 hours and $27: \( \frac{3}{27} = \frac{1}{9} \)
- For 4 hours and $36: \( \frac{4}{36} = \frac{1}{9} \)
Since all the ratios simplify to \( \frac{1}{9} \), they are equivalent.
Thus, the correct response is:
Yes, the ratios are in a proportional relationship.
