Question

A small grocery store offers two different brands of milk.

Answer 1

Answer:

the total cost of milk for Brand B will pass through the points (0,1.50) and (0.5,4.50).

Step-by-step explanation:

Brand A 2% milk costs $3.50 a gallon. If 0 gallons of milk are purchased, the cost is $0. If 1 gallon of milk is purchased, the cost is $3.50. So, the ray representing the total cost of milk for Brand A will pass through the points (0,0) and (1,3.50).

Brand B whole organic milk costs $3.00 for a half-gallon, plus a one-time deposit of $1.50 for the glass jug. At 0 gallons, the cost is $1.50 for the deposit. At 0.5 gallons, the cost is $3.00 + $1.50, or $4.50. So, the ray representing the total cost of milk for Brand B will pass through the points (0,1.50) and (0.5,4.50).

Since Brand A goes through the origin, Brand A is proportional. The correct graph is shown below.
