Question

1. The graph below shows the proportional relationship between the number of concert tickets sold and the amount of money, in dollars, raised by a musician. Concert Tickets Sold y What is the unit rate of the tickets sold?

Answer 1

Answer: $5 per ticket

To calculate the unit rate of the tickets sold, then we need to find the slope of the graph

Slope = rise / run

To calculate the slope, we need to pick some points on the graph

From the graph, we picked two points which are ( 20, 100) and (40, 200)

rise = y2 - y1

run = x2 - x1

Where x1 = 20, y1 = 100, x2 = 40, and y2 = 200

Slope = 200 - 100 / 40 - 20

Slope = 100 / 20

Slope = 5

Hence, the uint rate of the tickets sold is $5

The answer is $5 per ticket
