Activity
In this activity, you will identify proportional relationships found in tables.
Tim wants to buy several pairs of jeans. He compares the prices at a store in his neighborhood and at an online store. He finds that a pair of jeans costs $24 at the local store. If he buys online, each pair would cost $22, and he would have to pay a shipping fee of $6 per order.
Part A
Complete the tables to relate the number of pairs of jeans to the cost of the jeans at each store. Assume that Tim is placing a single order, and ignore any taxes.

Local Store Online Store
Pairs of Jeans Cost Pairs of Jeans Cost
1 $24 1 $28
2 $48 2 $50
3 $72 3 $72
At the local store, the cost of 1 pair of jeans is $24 and the cost of 3 pairs is $24 × 3 = $72. At the online store, the cost of 2 pairs of jeans is ($22 × 2) + $6 = $50 and the cost of 3 pairs is ($22 × 3) + $6 = $72.
Part B
Look at the table that represents the local store. For each row in the table, find the ratio of the number of pairs of jeans to the cost of the jeans.
