Question

y = 11x

1. complete the table to show the number of students for each number of chaperones.

chaperones (x) | students (y)
3 | 33
4 | 44
5 | 55
6 | 66
which equation represents the total number of chaperones and students when a bus is full?
options: x = 60y, x + y = 60, x - y = 60, y = 60x

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze table relationship

Check ratio of $y$ to $x$: $\frac{33}{3}=11$, $\frac{44}{4}=11$, $\frac{55}{5}=11$, $\frac{66}{6}=11$, so $y=11x$.

Step2: Evaluate total people equation

A full bus has total of chaperones ($x$) and students ($y$) equal to 60. So total is $x+y=60$.

Answer:

$x + y = 60$
