Answer:
Apples and Peaches
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to compare the prices for 3 lbs of each of the fruits.
Multiply the price and quantity of Apples by 4:
... 4×(3/4 lb) = 4×$1.59
... 3 lb = $6.36 . . . . for apples
Multiply the price and quantity of Plums by 6:
... 6×(0.5 lb) = 6×$1.15
... 3 lb = $6.90 . . . . for plums
The two lowest-priced fruits are apples (6.36/(3 lb)) and peaches (5.37/(3 lb)).

No criteria are provided for determining the best deal. Though plums are higher-priced, they have somewhat higher polyphenol content than apples or peaches, so may provide the best deal in terms of nutrition per dollar.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine if a point lies on the curve, substitute the x- coordinate into the equation. If the value obtained is equal to the y- coordinate then the point lies on the curve, that is
A
y = (
)² = 
≠ 
← not on line
B
y = (- 1)² = 1 ← lies on line
C
y = 4² = 16 ← lies on line
D
y = (
)² = 
← lies on line
