Answer:

p = 4/7c

p = 36 cups when c = 63 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Cups of pineapple juice, p = 8

Cups of cranberry juice, c = 14

equation that describes the proportional relationship between cups of pineapple juice (p) and cups of cranberry juice (c)

p = k * c

Where,

k = constant of proportionality

p = k * c

8 = k * 14

8 = 14k

k = 8/14

k = 4/7

Therefore,

p = 4/7c

How many cups of pineapple juice are needed for 63 cups of cranberry juice?

p = 4/7c

p = 4/7 * 63

= (4 * 63) / 7

= 252/7

= 36

p = 36

p = 36 cups when c = 63 cups
