Which table shows a proportional relationship between miles traveled and gas used?




Miles Traveled Gas Used
27. 3 mi 1. 5 gal
49. 16 mi 3. 8 gal

Miles Traveled Gas Used
120 mi 6. 2 gal
180 mi 12. 2 gal

Miles Traveled Gas Used
135 mi 7. 4 gal
135. 5 mi 7. 9 gal

Miles Traveled Gas Used
270 mi 15 gal
135 mi 7. 5 gal



Answer :

The Table containing 270 miles 15 gallons and 135 miles 7.5 gallons depicts proportionate relationship between miles traveled and gas used.

The way that two quantities are related to one another changes proportionally.

a= kb

where the proportional constant is known as k.

Let's assume that y miles have been traveled.

Let's suppose that the gas was x.

[tex]y \alpha x[/tex]

y = ca

Where c is the proportional constant .

In first table

Distance traveled: 27.3 miles

utilized gas = 1.5 gal

Adding the expression y = ca

27.3 = 1.5c,

c = 18.2

Travel distance is 49.16 miles.

Gas consumed: 3.8 gal.

Adding y = ca

49.16 = 3.8c

c = 12.94 to the equation (Approx)

As a result, the miles traveled are not affected by the amount of gas utilized.

As a result, the proportionate relationship is not shown in the table.

Second table

Miles travelled = 135 mi

Gas used = 7.4 gal

Putting in the formula

y = ca  

135 = 7.4c

c = 18.2

Miles travelled = 135.5 mi

Gas used = 7.9 gal

Putting in the formula

y = ca  

135.5 = 7.9c

c = 17.2 (Approx)

As a result, the miles traveled are not affected by the amount of gas utilized.

As a result, the proportionate relationship is not shown in the table.

Third table

Miles travelled = 120 mi

Gas used = 6.2 gal

Putting in the formula

y = ca  

120 = 6.2c

c = 19.4 (Approx)

Miles travelled = 180 mi

Gas used = 12.2 gal

Putting in the formula

y = ca  

180 = 12.2c

c = 14.8 (Approx)

Thus, the number of miles driven is not affected by the amount of gas utilized.

Table therefore does not display the proportional relationship.

Fourth table

Miles travelled = 270 mi

Gas used = 15gal

Putting in the formula

y = ca  

270 = 15c

c = 18

Miles travelled = 135 mi

Gas used = 7.5 gal

Putting in the formula

y = ca  

135= 7.5c

c = 18

The miles traveled therefore depend on the amount of gas utilized.

The proportional relationship is therefore displayed in the table.

Hence, The table that shows 270 miles,15 gallons of gas and 135 miles,7.5 gallons of gas shows the proportionate relationship between the miles travelled and gallons used.
