2.1
Is the relationship between the number of quarts picked and the weight of the strawberries proportional? Explain.

Respuesta :

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the strawberries is 40% higher than the number of the quartz.

What is the percentage?

The Percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to the 100. It is denoted by the sign %.

The given table is;-

Number of Quarts, n      Weight, w

   3                                        4.2

   5                                        7.0

  1.5                                       2.1

The ratio of the two numbers shows that all of them are 40% per cent higher.

=    4.2  /  3      =  1.4

=    7   /   5       =   1.4

=    2.1   /  1.5   =  1.4

Therefore the weight of the strawberries is 40% higher than the number of the quartz.
