Question

Emery bought 3 cans of beans that had a total weight of 2.4 pounds. If each can of beans weighed the same amount, which model correctly illustrates the relationship? Check all that apply

Answer 1

Answer:

Figure 2 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete, please find the figures in the attachment.

Number of cans of beans bought by Emery = 3

Total weight of cans = 2.4 pounds

weight of each can = $\frac{2.4}{3}$ = 0.8 pounds

If x be the number of cans and y represents the total weight then the model for this situation will be

y = 0.8x

Figure 1 :

From this graph weight of each can = $\frac{20}{16}=1.25$ pounds

so this graph is not the correct choice.

Figure 2:

From this graph weight of each can = $\frac{8}{10}$ = 0.8 pounds

So this graph is the correct choice.

Figure 3 :

From the given table, weight of each can = $\frac{4}{5}=0.8$ pounds

So the table shows the relationship.

Figure 4 :

From the given table, weight of each can = $\frac{5}{4}$ = 1.25 pounds

so this table is not the correct choice.

Therefore, figure 2 and 3 is illustrate the relationship.
