A proportional relationship between the number of pounds of potatoes (x) and the price in dollars (y) is graphed, and the ordered pair (4, 3) is on the graphed line. Part A: What is the price of 1 pound of potatoes? Show your work, including the proportion you used to determine the price. (8 points) Part B: What does the ordered pair (8, 6) on the graph represent? Explain in words. (2 points)
@brunomcv
Is there any graphic?
thts what every body kept asking but no
@brunomcv
@mathstudent55
@brunomcv please last one ill medal
So you can do the graph youself. You have 2 points already given. (0,0) because you dont pay anything if you dont buy anything, and the given point (4, 3) which is 4 potatoes for 3 dollars.
You can represent the graph by y = (3/4)x
so thts it @brunomcv
No, now with the equation you can get the answers. Ok, not 4 potatoes for 3 dollars, it was 4 pounds of potatoes for 3 dollars. Part A: They ask how much is 1 pound, just substitute the x for 1 and y will be the price. y = 3/4 3/4 is 75 cents. Part B: the ordered pair (8,6) means that 8 pounds of potatoes are 6 dollars.
so what happens now
That's it, I just answered them
