Question

1. Alexander’s grandparents get him a puppy for his thirteenth birthday, and he names the puppy Boomer. When Boomer is 1 month old, he weighs 4 pounds. When he is 2 months old, he weighs 7 pounds. In this relationship, x represents Boomer’s age (in months), and y represent her weight (in pounds). 1a.) Graph the two points for this relationship and the line passing through them on the coordinate plane. (2 points).

Answer 1

See attached graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Form a table for the information given as shown;

Boomer's age (in months)           Boomer's weight (in pounds)

1                                                             4

2                                                             7

Putting this information as pairs of coordinates will be;

(1,4)  and (2,7)

Plotting the points on a graph tool will give the attached graph.

Finding the equation of the line passing through the points;

m=slope of the line=rise/run

rise=Δy=7-4 = 3

run =Δx =2-1 =1

m=3/1 =3

Δy/Δx =3

y-4/x-1 =3

y-4=3(x-1)

y-4 =3x-3

y=3x-3+4

y=3x+1
