Answer:
(a) See attachment
[tex](b)\ y =2.5x[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]x \to pineapple[/tex]
[tex]y \to fruit[/tex]
[tex]x : y =2 : 5[/tex]
Solving (a): The graph
First, we create an equation from [tex]x : y =2 : 5[/tex]
Express as fraction
[tex]\frac{x }{ y} =\frac{2 }{ 5}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]2y = 5x[/tex]
See attachment for graph
Solving (b): An expression that represents the relationship
In (a), we have:
[tex]2y = 5x[/tex]
Divide by 2
[tex]y = \frac{5}{2}x[/tex]
[tex]y =2.5x[/tex]
