Question
Answer:
Answer:The answer to your question is yes, there is a proportional relationshipStep-by-step explanation:Data6 cell phones weight 46.2 ounces14 cell phones weight 107.8 ouncesProcess1.- Divide the weight by their respective number of cell phones a) 46.2 / 6 = 7.7 b) 107.8 / 6 = 7.72.- Conclude. It is a direct proportion because the result of both divisions is equal. That means that if the number of cell phones increases, the weight will be higher. The constant of proportionality is 7.7. 3.- Equation for the weight of any number of cell phones Weight = 7.7 x number of cell phones
