Part A

We have x = 4 and y = 3 paired up together.

This says that 4 pounds of potatoes cost $3

The price per pound (aka unit price) is y/x = 3/4 = 0.75 dollars = 75 cents.

Answer: 75 cents per pound

========================================

Part B

The ordered pair (8,6) means x = 8 and y = 6 pair up together.

So in this case, 8 pounds of potatoes cost $6.

notice how y/x = 6/8 = 3/4 = 0.75 dollars = 75 cents here as well. So we get the same unit cost.

Answer:

The computer loses 50%, percent of its value each year.

Step-by-step explanation:

See the graph attached.

A computer is sold for a certain price and then its value changes exponentially over time.

It is clear from the graph that at t = 0, the price was $500, then at t = 1 year, the price was $250 and at t = 2 years, the price was $125 and at t= 3 years, the price was $62.5 and so on.

Therefore, the computer loses 50%, percent of its value each year. (Answer)
