Question

at a carnival game, it cost robert $2 to toss 4 rings. fill out a table of equivalent ratios and plot the points on the coordinate axes provided. dollars tosses 2 2 4 4

Explanation:

Step1: Find the ratio of dollars to tosses

The given ratio is $2$ dollars for $4$ tosses, so the ratio of dollars to tosses is $\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$ (dollars per toss) or the ratio of tosses to dollars is $\frac{4}{2} = 2$ (tosses per dollar).

Step2: Find the missing dollar value for 2 tosses

Let $x$ be the dollars for 2 tosses. Using the ratio of dollars to tosses: $\frac{x}{2}=\frac{1}{2}$. Cross - multiplying gives $2x = 2$, so $x = 1$.

Step3: Find the missing toss value for 4 dollars

Let $y$ be the tosses for 4 dollars. Using the ratio of tosses to dollars: $\frac{y}{4}=2$. Multiplying both sides by 4 gives $y=8$.

Answer:

For the first empty cell (Dollars when Tosses = 2): $1$
For the second empty cell (Tosses when Dollars = 4): $8$
