If it is 5 equally spaced marks, then each mark represents 1/6
0 -- 1/6 -- 2/6 -- 3/6 -- 4/6 -- 5/6 -- 1
so the third mark would represent 3/6 which reduces to 1/2
What is being solved for is r.




Side = 12xy+1
Perimeter = 4(12xy+1)
Perimeter = 48xy + 4 (Answer B)
The correct answer is Choice A.
If you plot the points on a graph, you will see that there is a slope of -1 and the y-intercept is (0, 3).
This matches the equation of y = -x + 3 in Choice A.
