Math help! Fan and medal! A candy store keeps tracks of it's sales during the month of October. The table shows the number of sales for the first, second, third, and the fourth weeks of the month. Which graph could represent the date shown in the table?
week | candy sales 1 97 2 168 3 259 4 375
@Mehek14 ??
Well which ones are it obviously not?
Would it be 'A'?
As you go up in weeks from 1 to 2 to 3 the sales also goes up, so you can rule out the bottom two graphs, because as you move to the right, the dots are plotted lower (smaller)
You have to decide if it's A or B A shows a straight line. A straight line means the change in y divided by the change in x is the same as you move from point to point. For example going from (1,97) to (2,168) the slope is (168-97)/(2-1) = 71/1 or just 71 now check the slope from (3,259) to (4,375) (375-259)/(4-3) what do you get ?
