Answer:

Proportional Reasoning is the ability to recognize when two rations are equivalent. Two ratios are said to be equivalent if the ratios have equal numerical values. That's the actual definition from the class itself and it gave me a 100% score. Hope this helps!

Answer:

$\frac{20}{27}$ feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can simply set up a ratio to solve this problem.

Since plant grew 5/9 foot in 3/4 month, how many feet (let it be x) can it grow in 1 month??

We can set up the ratio shown below, cross multiply and solve for x:

$\frac{\frac{5}{9}}{\frac{3}{4}}=\frac{x}{1}\\\frac{5}{9}*1=\frac{3}{4}*x\\\frac{5}{9}=\frac{3}{4}x\\x=\frac{\frac{5}{9}}{\frac{3}{4}}\\x=\frac{5}{9}*\frac{4}{3}\\x=\frac{20}{27}$

Hence, we can say the pepper plant will grow 20/27 feet in 1 month.
