Question

You buy 3 pounds of organic apples for $7.50. The graph shows the price for regular apples. What is the unit rate for each type of apples?

(1 point)
organic $2.50/pound; regular $3.00/pound
organic $0.40/pound; regular $0.50/pound
organic $2.50/pound; regular $2.00/pound
none of the above

Answer 1

now, you should learn to interpret that graph...
first things first : since 3 pounds of O.Apples for $ 7.5 ~ it means the rate is $ 2.5/pound
from the graph, we can see that, at 1 on the "pounds" axis (generally, the x-axis), the corresponding number on the $ axis (generally the y-axis) is 2... hence it is $2/pound..

so the rates are $ 2.5/pound (OA), and $2/pound (A)

Answer 2
