AppIGN Number of Boxes Tocal Number of Pounds И. 7 8 72 10 Which of the following correctly describes the relationship in the table? A. Number of boxes + 4 = total number of pounds B. Number of boxes x 9 + total number of pounds C. Number of boxes - 9 total number of pounds D. Number of boxes x 6 = total number of pounds

Answer 1

From the table it can be observed if we multiply the number of boxes by 9, then it gives total number of pounds for the corresponding number of boxes.

As 4 multiply by 9 is 36, which is total number of pounds for 4 boxes. In similar manner total number of pounds can be obtained for different number of boxes.

So answer is,

`\text{ Number of boxes}*9=\text{ total number of pounds}`

Option B is correct.
