Jason went to the market. He bought one and a half pounds of salami for $3.75. Identify the graph that shows this relationship.
The graph that shows the relationship between the pounds of salami bought and the cost is a bar graph. On the x-axis, you would have the pounds of salami (with increments such as 0.5, 1, 1.5, etc.), and on the y-axis, you would have the cost in dollars. The bar representing 1.5 pounds of salami would be labeled with the value $3.75.
To identify the graph that shows the relationship between the amount of salami purchased and the cost, we can use a coordinate plane.
In this case, we have two variables: the pounds of salami (x-axis) and the cost in dollars (y-axis). The graph will display the relationship between these two variables.
To draw the graph, we need to find at least two points that represent this relationship. From the given information, we know that Jason bought one and a half pounds of salami for $3.75.
Let's choose another point for the graph. To keep it simple, let's assume that if Jason buys one pound of salami, it would cost $2.50.
So, we have the following two points:
(1.5, 3.75)
(1, 2.50)
Now, we can plot these two points on the coordinate plane. The x-coordinate represents the weight of salami, and the y-coordinate represents the cost in dollars.
Once both points are plotted, we can draw a line connecting them. This line will represent the relationship between the weight of salami and the cost.
The graph should show that as the weight of salami increases, the cost also increases. The line should slope upward from left to right.
Note that the graph will be a straight line if this relationship is directly proportional. If the relationship is not directly proportional, the graph may be curved.
Without a visual representation, it is challenging to provide an exact image of the graph. However, it should resemble a straight line on an upward slope connecting the two plotted points mentioned above.
