Question

Monique has 4 pencils for every 2 pens in her backpack. If she has 6 pencils, how many pens does she have? If pens are the X variable and pencils are the Y variable, plot this relationship as a point in the coordinate plane.

Answer 1

Answer: 3 pens

Step-by-step explanation: The ratio of pencils to pens Monique has is 2:1, this means that for every 2 pencils Monique has she will have 1 pen. To plot this on a graph you can put one point at (2,1) and another point at (4,2)
