Reflection: 1. If you know the distance between two points in leagues, how can you find the distance in miles?
2. If you know the distance between two point in miles, how can you find the distance in leagues?

Try It: The price of bananas at another store can be determined by the equation: P = $0.35n, where P is the price and n is the number of pounds of bananas. What is the constant of proportionality (unit rate)?
Graphs
The graph shows the relationship between the weight of an object on the Moon and its weight on Earth.
Use the points on the graph to make a table:
Earth Weight (lb) Moon Weight (lb)
Find the constant of proportionality:
Write an equation: Let = weight on Earth The equation is: Ratios, proportions, percents Page 3
and
= weight on the Moon
The equation is:
Try It: A student is making trail mix. Create a graph to determine if the quantities of nuts and fruit are proportional for each serving size listed in the table. If the quantities are proportional, what is the constant of proportionality or unit rate that defines the relationship? Explain how the constant of proportionality was determined and how it relates to both the table and graph.
