It cost $5.25 for a bottle of 150 vitamins. if the cost varies directly with the number of vitamins in the bottle, what should a bottle of 250 vitamins cost? what is the equation o the situation?
Could you please give me the equation and show me how you got it please so I could understand... thanks.

$8.75 for 250 vitamins.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much each vitamin costs we can divide $5.25 by 150.

5.25/150 = 0.035. So each vitamin is equal to $0.035.

We can then multiply the cost of 1 vitamin by 250.

0.035 x 250 = 8.75 or $8.75.

We can also make an equation for this problem. Let the total cost be equal to y and each vitamin equal to x.

y = 0.035x

So the equation above states that the total cost, y, is the amount of vitamins that are bought.
