Bob grew 1,102 plants with 29 seed packets. With 94 seed packets, how many total plants can Bob have in his backyard? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.

Respuesta :

If the relation between number of plants and the number of seed packets is directly proportional and x is the number of plants can Bob have for 94 seed packets, you can write;

[tex]\frac{x}{94}=\frac{1102}{29}[/tex]

By solving for x in the previous expression and simplifying, you get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{1102}{29}\cdot94 \\ x=3572 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, Bob could have 3572 plants if he uses 29 seed packets.
