Is "The weight of a stack of standard 8.5x11 copier paper vs. number of sheets of paper." a proportional relationship?

Yes it is a direct proportional relationship

Explanation:

The equation is in the form y = kx, where

x = number of sheets of paper

k = weight of 1 sheet of paper

y = weight of all the x sheets of paper

x is some nonnegative whole number. The values of y and k are some nonnegative real numbers (aka any decimal values).

Note how if we had x = 0 pieces of paper, then y = 0 is the weight. So no paper leads to no weight. This visually is shown by the line y = kx going through the origin. All direct proportion equations go through the origin.

Each time we add a sheet of paper, we add on k ounces or k grams, or whatever units you're working with. The amount is constant assuming you are dealing with the same type of paper. Comparing y = kx with y = mx+b, we see that k plays the role of the slope or rate of change.

(2,20) means that the 2 is 2 hours and 20 is 20$. so there both 20$ for 2 hours only the same price. like it says. so, the dunk tank and the bounce house are the same price (20$) for the same amount of time (2 hours).

the solution is the point

step-by-step explanation:

we have

> equation a

> equation b

adds equation a and equation b

substitute the value of x in equation b to find the value of y

the solution is the point
