(1, 49.99), (2, 99.98), (3, 149.97), (4, 199.96)

Which of the following best describes how the y-axis should be labeled?
From 0 to 200 at intervals of 50
From 0 to 400 at intervals of 50
From 0 to 500 at intervals of 100
From 0 to 150 at intervals of 100

Hey there, the points are defined by (x , y)

steve816 · Answer

the second number in the coordinate would be the y coordinate.

steve816 · Answer

So look, we start at (0, 0) then we go up to (1, 49.99), then  (2, 99.98) and so on.

steve816 · Answer

Look at the second number in each of the coordinate, what do you notice?
