James is making omelettes for his family. He begins with a dozen eggs and each omelette takes 2 eggs. Which graph shows the number of eggs left based on the number of omelettes made?
A.
Graph shows Number of omelets on y-axis and number of eggs on x-axis. A line touching the points (0, 0) and (12, 6).
B.
Graph shows Number of eggs on y-axis and number of omelets on x-axis. A line touching the points (0, 12) and (6, 0).
C.
Graph shows Number of eggs on y-axis and number of omelets on x-axis. A line touching the points (0, 0) and (6, 12).
D.
Graph shows Number of omelets on y-axis and number of eggs on x-axis. A line touching the points (0, 6) and (12, 0).
The correct graph is option D.
This is because the graph shows the relationship between the number of omelettes made (x-axis) and the number of eggs left (y-axis). The line touches the points (0, 6) and (12, 0), which indicates that when James starts with 12 eggs (0 omelettes made), he has 6 eggs left, and when he has made 12 omelettes, he has 0 eggs left.
