Question

A proportional relationship between the number of pounds of potatoes (x) and the price in dollars (y) is graphed, and the ordered pair (4, 3) is on the graphed line. Part A: What is the price of 1 pound of potatoes? Show your work. (8 points) Part B: What does the ordered pair (8, 6) on the graph represent? Explain in words. (2 points)
(they're is no graph)

Answer 1

X = lbs of potatoes and y = price

(4,3)....this means 4 lbs of potatoes cost $ 3

3/4 = 0.75 cents per lb <== 1 lb of potatoes cost 0.75

(8,6)...this means that 8 lbs of potatoes cost $ 6
