Explain how to determine if Carlos’s allowance is directly proportional to the number of chores he completes.

A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled number of chores with entries 10, 13, 15. Column 2 is labeled Allowance with entries 75 dollars, 97 dollars and 50 cents, 112 dollars and 50 cents.

Using a proportional relationship, it is found that Carlos earns an allowance of $7.5 for each chore that he completes.

What is a proportional relationship?

A proportional relationship is a function in which the output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality, that is:

y = kx

In which k is the constant of proportionality.

In this problem, the constant is:

k = 75/10 = 97.5/13 = 112.5/15 = 7.5.

Hence Carlos earns an allowance of $7.5 for each chore that he completes.
