A) The variable on the horizontal axis of the graph (the independent variable) is "pounds of rice". That is what the first number in the ordered pair (6, 18) represents.
The variable on the vertical axis of the graph (the dependent variable) is "total cost in dollars". That is what the second number in the ordered pair represents.
(6, 18) represents that the total cost of purchasing 6 lbs of rice is $18.
B) The unit price is found at the point where the independent variable has the value 1. That would be at the point (1, 3), which indicates the unit price is $3 per pound.
C) You would have to buy 4 lbs of rice for the total cost to be $12. There are at least two ways to find the answer.
- Draw a horizontal line on the graph at cost = $12. It intersects the graph at lbs = 4.
- Divide the total cost by the unit price. $12/($3/lb) = 4 lb.
In order to subtract fractions, we must find a common denominator, then subtract the numerators.
The common denominator (LCM(3, 5)) is 15.
We must multiply the first numerator by 5, because 3*5=15 and the second numerator by 3 because 5*3=15.
We get
.
All we need to do now is subtract the numerators:
.
The answer is 14/15.

Answer: Quadrilateral
Explanation:
Any four sided polygon is considered a quadrilateral since "quad" means "four". You can think of a quad bike, which has four wheels, to help remember this math term.
Usually in problems like this, we'll be given information about if certain sides are parallel or the same length. However, we don't this info, so we cannot narrow down this classification anymore.
