Question

On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled white flowers and the y-axis is labeled pink flowers. Point A is (8, 12). Points (4, 6) and (12, 18) are also plotted. A line is drawn through all 3 points. Which of the following does Point A represent?

1) Ratio of white flowers to pink flowers
2) Ratio of white flowers to all flowers
3) Ordered pair (8, 12)
4) Ordered pair (12, 8)
5) Number of pink and white flowers in one row of Molly's garden
6) The unit rate

Answer 1

Point A represents the ordered pair (8, 12), which signifies the number of white and pink flowers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Point A represents the ordered pair (8, 12).

The x-coordinate represents the number of white flowers, and the y-coordinate represents the number of pink flowers. So, the ordered pair (8, 12) means that there are 8 white flowers and 12 pink flowers.

The line drawn through all 3 points represents the relationship between the number of white flowers and the number of pink flowers. Each point on the line corresponds to a different ratio of white flowers to pink flowers.
