The answer is the first choice - see picture for solution:
Some of your pic is cut off so it's difficult to give the exact answer. But if you plot the points from the table you get that the equation for that set of data is linear and is y = 1/3x -2. This tells me that the y-intercepts are the same for both equations, so your answer is not the first or the third. Because the slope of the function A is 3 and for B is 1/3, the line for function A is steeper, the second of your choices above.
Answer:
3 1/2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a problem in units conversion. We want to get from bags to hours by way of minutes per bag. One bag takes an effort of 2/3 person·minute, so we need to divide the total effort by the number of persons and convert minutes to hours.
(1575 bags)×(2/3 person·min/bag)/(5 person)/(60 min/h)
= (1575)(2/3)(1/5)(1/60) h = 3.5
It will take the 5 of them about 3 1/2 hours to prepare 1575 bags.
The giant jar of jelly beans is 5 times the size of the smaller jar. If there are 83 jelly beans in the smaller jar, the giant jar can be represented as 5(83).
5(83) = 415 jelly beans
