Yanka [14]

The correct answer is that the y -axiz shows exponential increase, not a linear increase. Instead of counting consecutively by ones or twos, the y -axis goes from 1 to 2 to 4 to 8 (multiplying by 2). This will result in data that looks closer together than it actually is, and therefore is misleading.

Please help me anyone !!!!
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

If you rotate the triangles so that they look the same, one side of both of them are labeled. This gives you the fraction 9/12, or 3/4. The smaller triangle is 3/4th of the larger one. If the larger triangle has 4 on one side, then let's make the equation 3/4 = y/4. The length of y is 3. :)
