Question

Interpreting Points on Graphs of Proportional Relationships

Answer 1

There are the following conclusions:

Not true

1. The pumpkin grew to a weight of 3 ounces in 18 weeks.
2. The quotient 3 / 18 equals the growth rate of the pumpkin in ounces per week.

Cannot be determined

1. Each crate can hold 18 pumpkins.

True

1. In 3 weeks, the pumpkin grew to a weight of 18 ounces.
2. The pumpkin grew at a rate of 6 ounces per one week.

How to interpret graphs of proportional relationships

The graph shows the graph of proportional relationship, in which the weight of a pumpkin, in ounces, is directly proportional to time, in weeks. Then:

y ∝ x

y = k · x

Where k is the constant of proportionality, in ounces per week.

The point (x, y) = (3, 18) indicates that a pumpkin reaches a weight of 18 ounces after 3 weeks and the constant of proportionality is equal 6 ounces per week.

Then, we have the following conclusions:

Not true

1. The pumpkin grew to a weight of 3 ounces in 18 weeks.
2. The quotient 3 / 18 equals the growth rate of the pumpkin in ounces per week.

Cannot be determined

1. Each crate can hold 18 pumpkins.

True

1. In 3 weeks, the pumpkin grew to a weight of 18 ounces.
2. The pumpkin grew at a rate of 6 ounces per one week.
