Answer 3

To solve a proportion start with a proportion template. ---- = ----

Now you just need to fill in three of the four spots in the template.

You are told that pounds of potatoes is on the x axis and dollars is on the y axis. You are also given an ordered pair (4,3). In a ordered pair, x is the first number and y is the second number. (x,y). So the 4 represents 4 pounds of potatoes, and the 3 represents 3 dollars.

So you now know and can enter two of the three numbers in the proportion template.

4 lbs
---- = ----
3 dollars

You are asked to find the cost of 1 pound of potatoes. So you now know the third number in the proportion template which is 1.

So the proportion template now looks like this.

4 lbs 1 lb
----- = -----
3 dollars ? cost of 1 lb.

To solve either use algebra, or multiply the two number diagonally across from each other and divide by the third number.

So cross multiplying, we get 1 times 3 = 3.

Next we divide by the third number, 4. So 3 divided by 4 = .75 dollars or 75 cents

Answer 4

its 75 cents

Answer 5

You should be able to answer part B on your own.

Your second question appears to be a circle or an oval. We would need some measurements of the circle or oval to answer the question.
