Answer:

[tex]b = 90w[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Determine the relationship

Represent the workers with w and bricks with b

First, we need to determine the constant of proportionality using:

[tex]b = kw[/tex]

Solve for k

[tex]k = \frac{b}{w}[/tex]

When w = 1; b = 90:

[tex]k = \frac{90}{1}[/tex]

[tex]k = 90[/tex]

When w = 2; k =180

[tex]k = \frac{180}{2}[/tex]

[tex]k = 90[/tex]

Notice that [tex]k = 90[/tex] in both cases;

Substitute 90 for k in [tex]b = kw[/tex]

[tex]b = 90w[/tex]

Hence; the relationship is [tex]b = 90w[/tex]
