Well determine the cost of one lb. To do that divide $19.50 by 15. This gives you $1.30 per lb. Multiply this by 12 1/2 to get your answer. This is $16.25

There are 2 ways to do this....

(1) find the unit rate....19.50 / 15 = 1.30 per lb.
for 12 1/2 (or 12.5) lbs = 1.30 * 12.5 = 16.25 <===

(2) proportion...
15 / 19.50 = 12.5 / x...15 lbs to 19.50 = 12.5 lbs to x
 cross multiply
 (15)(x) = (19.5)(12.5)
  15x = 243.75
 x = 243.75 / 15
x = 16.25 <==

What is the independent and dependent variable? Whats the (x) and (y) axis?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

x-axis(independent) = 1.5

y-axis(dependant) = 75ft

Step-by-step explanation:

An INDEPENDENT variable is the variable yourself can not change, in this case its time. The DEPENDANT variable is the variable that is changed to affect data you are solving for. Idk if this helps you at all to understand for future references but i hope it did!
