Question

Which rate shows the price at which Joanna sells tomatoes?

Answer 1

Answer is B. $ 1.20 per pound

Explanation:

It is evident from the graph in which prices have been plotted on Y axis and weight on X axis.

Now we can see clearly from the graph that 5 pounds of Tomatoes were costing 6 dollars and 10 pounds were costing 12 dollars.

Therefore selling price of the tomatoes will be = Total price/weight of tomatoes

So selling price =6/5 or 12/10

Now by solving this selling price= $ 1.2 per pound
