Question

A line graph has a vertical axis labeled "Average plant height (cm)" and a horizontal axis labeled "Fertilizer (g/plant)." What information is conveyed by a point plotted with the coordinates (1,25)? Keep in mind coordinates are written as (x-coordinate, y-coordinate).
A. The range of fertilizer was from 1 g per plant to 25 g per plant.
B. The average height of plants given 1 g of fertilizer was 25 cm.
C. The range of average plant height was from 1 cm to 25 cm.
D. The average height of plants given 25 g of fertilizer was cm.

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The x coordinate is basically giving us the amount of fertilizer in grams.

The y coordinate is giving us the average height of the plant because of the corresponding fertilizer.

A point of (1,25) would tell us that 1 grams of fertilizer given, the average height of those plants would be 25 cm.

So, if we give 1 grams of fertilizer, those plants' average height became 25 cm.

From the answer choices, B is the correct answer.
