Question

Drag each statement to show it true,based on the graph.

Answer 1

Answer:

1). Cinnamon costs $7 per one pound

2). Price per pound of the cinnamon equals $$\frac{5.25}{0.75}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

x-values on the graph define the weight of cinnamon and y-values define the price.

Slope of the line drawn from the origin (0, 0) and (0.75, 5.25) will determine the per lb price of the cinnamon.

Slope of a line passing through two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ will be,

Slope = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

If the points on the given line re (0,0) and (0.75, 5.25),

Slope = $\frac{5.25-0}{0.75-0}$

          = 7

Therefore, two options are the correct options.

1). Cinnamon costs $7 per one pound

2). Price per pound of the cinnamon equals $$\frac{5.25}{0.75}$.
