When 1/8 cup of popcorn kernels are popped, they create 5 cups of popped corn. How many cups of popcorn would 1 cup of kernels produce? A.58cup
B.478cups
C.518cups
D.40 cups

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it is 1/8 it is much easier.

8 times 5 = 40

So you know that 1/8 was timesed by 40 to get 5. This means you can times x by 40 to get the cups of popcorn the kernels would produce. That means 1 times 40 equals 40. Making the cups of popcorn the kernels would produce is 40.

first option

a function is a relation in which an input is paired with exactly one output.

so, let's find the right answer.

in our first option, our inputs are january, february, and march. the outputs are 30, 28, and 25. each input has it's own output. this is correct!

our second option we know is incorrect, because ms. valverade has two outputs, dogs and cats. this is not a function.

our third option is incorrect as well. the yellow square has two ouputs, the square and the triangle.

lastly, in our fourth option, we see the number 7 two times with a different output. therefore, this is not a function.

remember: each input must be paired with only one output!
