The correct equation for the relation between the teaspoons of powder used and the gallons of fertilizer made is y = (5/8)x. This equation represents a proportional relationship, where the amount of fertilizer made (y) is directly proportional to the amount of powder used (x), with a constant ratio of 5/8.
Among the given graphs, the correct one that represents this proportional relationship is a straight line passing through the origin (0,0) and having a positive slope.
You can make 5 gal of liquid fertilizer by mixing 8 tsp of powdered fertilizer with water. Represent the relation between the teaspoons of powder used and the gallons of fertilizer made using a table, an equation, and a graph is the amount of fertilizer made a function of the amount of powder used?
Number of tsp, x Number of gal,y
