Marley used 7 cups of water to make 4 loaves of French bread. What equation can be used to model the total cups of water needed y for making x loaves of French bread? Write the equation in the form y =kx .

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportional Relationship

It's the type of relationships between two variables where their ratios are equivalent.

In a proportional relationship, one variable is always a constant value by the other. That constant is known as the constant of proportionality.

A proportional relationship between the variables x and y is written as:

y=k.x

For this problem, y represents the cups of water needed for making x loaves of French bread.

We know Marley used y=7 cups of water to make x=4 loaves of French bread. Substituting into the equation:

7=k.4

Solving for k:

The equation to model the problem is:

8

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
