Amachine in a shoe factory produces shoelaces. the number of shoelaces it produces is proportional to the time. it can produce twelve shoelaces in three minutes. write an equation to represent this proportional relationship. in your answer, make sure to define the variable you used.

y = 4x (y = shoelaces & x = minutes)

Step-by-step explanation: We know that 12 shoelaces are produced in 3 minutes and that the ratio of shoelaces produced to minutes spent is proportional. We can figure out, therefore, that if you multiply the number of minutes by 4, you will get the number of shoelaces. As an equation, this would be y = 4x (y = shoelaces & x = minutes).

the total estimated nappy use.=10,500,000

step-by-step explanation:

given that on an average the average baby uses 3528 napkins.

in a particular year 2014, the number of births were 299697 in new south wales.

rounding off the number of births to the nearest hundred thousand we have

no of birtsh = 300000

also rounding off the average usage to nearst thousand we get

average use of a baby = 3500

hence total number of nappy estimated to be used = 3500x300000

= 10,500,000

answer is 10,500,000 nappies
