Read the description of a proportional relationship.
Logan has written his own recipe for pot roast. There is a proportional relationship between the weight (in pounds) of the pot roast, x, and the total cooking time (in hours), y.
His recipe says that a 4-pound roast should take 1 hour to cook. Write the equation for the relationship between x and y.
y=

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x and y are in proportion then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportionality

To find k use the condition

x = 4 , y = 1, then

k = [tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

y = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x ← equation of proportionality
