Question

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jacob wants to make a graph to show the relationship between temperatures in Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius. He plots the following points:

(11, −11.7), (15, −9.4), (25, −3.9), (35, 1.7), (45, 7.2)

He uses the following steps to plot the graph:

1.Label origin as (0, 0).
2. On x-axis, label Temperature in Fahrenheit.
3.On y-axis, label Temperature in degrees Celsius.
4. The scale on x-axis starts from 0 and goes up to 700 at intervals of 20.
5. The scale on the y-axis starts from −12 and goes up to 12 at intervals of

Answer 1

Which of the following best describes the graph?

It will not be spread out horizontally across the entire coordinate plane because in Step 4, Jacob selected an incorrect scale on the x-axis.

It will not be spread out vertically across the entire coordinate plane because in Step 5, Jacob selected an incorrect scale on the y-axis.

It will not be spread out horizontally across the entire coordinate plane because in Step 2, Jacob plotted Fahrenheit instead of Celsius on the x-axis.

It will not be spread out vertically across the entire coordinate plane because in Step 3, Jacob plotted Celsius instead of Fahrenheit on the y-axis.

Answer 2

please help!

Answer 3

It's either A or B, depends what temperature range you are wanting to plot.

Answer 4

Because the temperature range of points plotted for the y co-ordinates is much less than the range specified by the axis, the points will not spread out horizontally, therefore the answer is A.

Answer 5

Does that make sense to you?

Answer 6

A more appropriate scaling for the x axis would be as seen in the picture

Answer 7

so a b c or d

Answer 8

This problem might become much clearer for you if only you'd please graph the given points and draw a straight line thru them. You'll be able to determine the x- and y-intercepts that way (you only need the y-intercept, however). What is the slope of this line? How would you calculate it?
