Given the proportional steel cost, how much do 200 pounds of steel cost?

Answer:
Your answer is B, 150
Step-by-step explanation:
If we look at the chart it says 160 pounds of steel is 120, so for example if we start from 40 we will have 30, so every time we add 40 pounds 30$ are added, meaning that 160+40=200, 120+30= 150, Thus B or 150 is our answer.
Answer:
$150
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi,
We know that 160Ibs of steel costs $120. To find the cost of 1Ib of steel, we have to divide both 160Ibs and $120 by 160. Here's what I mean...
Total amount: 160Ibs
Divide by 160...
Total amount: 1Ib
Total cost: $120
Divide by 160...
Total cost: $.75
That means that each pound of steel costs $.75
Now, multiply by 200 to get the total cost if you buy 200Ibs of steel...
200 x .75 = 150
The total cost would be $150
Hope this helps :)
