Bell Work1) Buffalo Wild Wings has the best wings around. We go on Tuesday night because the wings are on sale. Adam ordered 14 wings for $7.00. How much will Beth pay, if she orders 18 wings?

2) In the above question, is the relationship a proportional one? Why or why not? 3) Wings Stop is a competitor with Buffalo Wild Wings. They are currently offering a special. Customers pay a $10.00 fee, and then pay $0.25 for each wing. If Beth orders 18 wings, who has the better deal?

Proportional relationships can be identified in both tables and graphs. Today you will have an opportunity to take a closer look at how graphs and tables for proportional relationships can help you organize your work to find any missing value quickly and easily.

4-47. THE YOGURT SHOP

Jell E. Bean owns the local frozen yogurt shop.  At her store, customers serve themselves a bowl of frozen yogurt and top it with chocolate chips, frozen raspberries, and any of the different treats available.  Customers must then weigh their creations and are charged by the weight of their bowls.

Jell E. Bean charges $32 for five pounds of dessert, but not many people buy that much frozen yogurt.  She needs you to help her figure out how much to charge her customers.  She has customers that are young children who buy only a small amount of yogurt as well as large groups that come in and pay for everyone’s yogurt together.

a. Is it reasonable to assume that the weight of the yogurt is proportional to its cost?  How can you tell?   

b. Assuming it is proportional, make a table that lists the price for at least ten different weights of yogurt.  Be sure to include at least three weights that are not whole numbers.

c. What is the unit rate of the yogurt? (Stores often call this the unit price.) Use the unit rate to write an equation that Jell E. Bean can use to calculate the amount any customer will pay.

d. If Jell E. Bean decided to start charging $0.50 for each cup before her customers started filling it with yogurt and toppings, could you use the same equation to find the new prices? Why or why not?

1. Sarah’s grape vine grew 15 inches in 6 weeks, write an equation to represent its growth after t weeks.

2. On average Max makes 45 out of 60 shots with the basketball, write an equation to represent the average number of shots made out of x attempts.

3. The tax on a $600 vase is $54. Write and solve and equation to find what the tax on a $1700 vase would be.

4. While baking, Evan discovered a recipe that required ½cups of walnuts for every 2 ¼ cups of flour. Write and solve an equation to find how many cups of walnuts will he need for 4 cups of flour.
