Answer:

k = 45/2 and n = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

cost C varies directly as the number of kilos of rice n

C = kn where k is the constant of variation

if C = 45 and n = 2

C = kn

45 = k ( 2 )

k = 45/2

if C = 135/2, find n.

C = kn

135/2 = (45/2) ( n )

n = (135/2) / (45/2)

n = (135/2) * (2/45)

n = (135)(2) / (2)(45)

n = 3
