Brown rice costs $2 per pound, and beans cost $1.60 per pound. Lin has $10 to spend on these items to make a large meal of beans and rice for a potluck dinner. Let b be the number of pounds of beans Lin buys and r be the number of pounds of rice she buys when she spends all her money on this meal.[list=1][*]Write an equation relating the two variables.[/*][*]Rearrange the equation so b is the independent variable.[/*][*]Rearrange the equation so r is the independent variable.[/*][/list]
The amount Lin’s sister earns at her part-time job is proportional to the number of hours she works. She earns $9.60 per hour.[list=1][*]Write an equation in the form y=kx to describe this situation, where xrepresents the hours she works and y represents the dollars she earns.[/*][*]Is y a function of x? Explain how you know.[/*][*]Write an equation describing x as a function of y.[/*][/list]
