Records kept by the chief dietitian at the university cafeteria over a 28-period show the following weekly consumption of milk (in gallons). milk 200 205 210 215 220 225 230 235 240 weeks 2 5 6 3 5 2 2 2 1 (a) find the average number of gallons of milk consumed per week in the cafeteria. (round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

220

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average, add all values then divide by how many values are included

d

step-by-step explanation:

hello and welcome!

so, when we see the words "proportional" along with a table, we need to know that we're looking numbers that divide by the same thing.

looking at this table, we simply have to do a trial and error, and divide to see which numbers have the same quotient. if you look at choice a & c, they both have equal quotients for three of the numbers, with one exception, so those can't be the answer. looking at b, there is no similarity, so that can't be it. then, we see d; if you divide all the numbers in the table, you'll see that they all divide by two, which is a proportional relationship, and our answer!

also, always remember that the x will always be the number that goes into y, and somewhere behind this table, is a formula. for this specific table, the formula would be:

since our x-value is being divided by two to get the y-value. and if they were to ask for more numbers in the series, this is the formula you would use to find them.
