The table shows the number of candies packed by Machine C. The equation shows the number of candies packed by Machine D. In both
representations, x is a measure of the number of minutes and y is a measure of the number of candies packed. Machine C Candy Packing
x (minutes) y (candies)
2 150
4 300
6 450
8 600
Machine D: y = 130x
How many more candies could machine D pack than machine C in 11 minutes?
65
130
450
605
<span>The correct answer is D) 605</span> Step by step answer: Divide 2 by 150 and you will get 75, meaning that Machine J packed 75 candies per minute. Machine K packed 130 candies per minute as it stated. In order to figure out how many more candies Machine J packed then Machine K in 11 minutes, you would need to figure out how many more candies it packed in one minute then multiply by 11. In this case Machine J packed 55 more then Machine K in one minute, therefore Machine J packed 605 more than Machine K in 11 minutes. Hope this helped!
