Answer:

Jorge 9 feet in 3 steps represented by the ordered pair (3,9).

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

We are given a graph that shows how much distance Jorge walk to the number of steps he take.

The x-axis shows the number of steps taken by Jorge and y-axis shows the distance in feet walked by Jorge.

We have to find the number of feet walked by Jon in 3 steps.

That is we have to find the point on graph with x coordinate equals to 3.

The ordered pair (3,9) lies on the straight line when the points are connected.

Hence, Jorge 9 feet in 3 steps represented by the ordered pair (3,9).

We are given order pairs (x,y) as (Number of steps, Number of feet).

On the given graph, order pairs are :

(2,6)

(4,12)

(6,18)

(8,24)

(10,30).

We need to find the the number of feet Jorge walks in 3 steps.

Rate of number of feet per number of step is (12-6)/(4-2) = 6/2 = 3.

In order to find the number of feet Jorge walks in 3 steps, we need to multiply 3 by rate.

Therefore, 3 × 3 = 9.

Therefore, (3,9) ordered pair represents the number of feet Jorge walks in 3 steps.
