Question

Roland says the number of cups of iced tea t depends on the number of tea bags b. He says the equation represents the relationship between the number of tea bags b and the cups of iced tea t = b/1.5. Is Roland correct? Use words and numbers to explain why or why not.

Answer 1

I think Roland is correct in his statement.

Explanation:

Roland says the number of cups of iced tea t depends on the number of tea bags b and he says the equation represents the relationship between the number of tea bags b and the cups of iced tea
`t = (b)/(1.5)`.

I think Roland is correct in his statement and this is because here t is a function of b i.e. t = f(b) and hence, the number of cups of iced tea t depends on the number of tea bags b. (Answer)
