The number of shoes a cobbler (shoemaker) can make varies directly with the amount of time the cobbler spends making the shoes.


If the cobbler can make 3 pairs of shoes in two hours, how would you write this equation?


Group of answer choices

The pairs of shoes increases as the time the cobbler works increases

The equation of the pairs of shoes is y = kx

How to determine the equation?

The variation is a direct variation.

So, we  have:

y = kx

Where:

  • y represents the number of shoes
  • x represents the time in hours
  • k represents the proportionality constant

The cobbler can make 3 pairs of shoes in two hours,

So, we have:

k = 3/2

k = 1.5

Substitute k = 1.5 in y = kx

y = 1.5x

Hence, the equation of the scenario is y = kx
