Answer:

15, 8, 25 The teacher payed 0.40 per book.

Explanation:

4/10 = 2/5 Simplify the 4/10 to find the unit rate.

15: 2/5 = 6/x Set up your proportion.

2x =30 Cross multiply

/2 /2 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x

x =15

8: 2/5 = x/20 Set up proportion

40 =5x Cross multiply

/5 /5 Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x

8 =x

25: 2/5 = 10/x Set up proportion

2x =50 Cross multiply

/2 /2 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x

x =25

Graph: y=mx+b To graph, you will need to use y=mx+b format

y= 2/5 x+2 2/5 is your unit rate. Your rate changes every 2 books bought. To graph, start at (0,2) and go up 2 and to the right 5, plot. Continue moving up 2 and to the right 5 to graph.

The teacher payed 0.40 per book because 2/5 simplifies to 0.40.
