From the graph, the unit price of beef is $4 . Hence, option D is correct.

From the graph; The pair of points (1, 4) represents the price of 1 pound of beef . This means that 1 pound of beef cost $4 .

This can be expressed in the form cost per pound, which is $4/1 lb.

This means that the correct option is D.
