Question

According to the graph, what is the value of the constant in the equation below

height= Constant/Width

points: (2,6) (6,2) (10,1.2) (12,1)

answer choices


A- 12

B- 6

C- 4

D- 8

Answer 1

A 12 is correct

........................

Answer 2

A. 12

Explanation:

To finf the right constant, let's test each of them

Constant of 12.

`height=(constant)/(width)`

First point.

`2=(12)/(6)\\ 2=2`

Second point.

`6=(12)/(2)\\ 6=6`

Third point.

`10=(12)/(1.2) \\10=10`

Fourth point.

`12=(12)/(1)\\ 1=1`

As you can observe, if the constant is 12, the equation is true.

Therefore, the right answer is A.
