Question

Help how do I do this!!!!

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

Since the weight is proportional to the cost, let's find the slope of the chart.

(x,y) corresponds to (weight, cost)

Pick 2 coordinate points with both the weight and cost.

(4, 23.96) (6, 35.94)

`m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`

`(35.94-23.96)/(6-4)= 5.99`

One pound is 5.99 dollars.

So to fill in the chart, multiply 5.99 by the number of pounds.

y=5.99x

2 lbs | $11.98

3 lbs | $17.97

4 lbs | $23.96

5 lbs | $29.95

6 lbs | $35.94

With this information, C would be the correct answer.

Answer 2

In order to find each one, we need to divide 23.96/4 to find what each pound costs. After dividing, you get 5.99. Each pound costs 5.99. So for the first one just multiply 2x5.99 and get 11.98. And the second one shows 17.97 so we can just divide 17.97 by 5.99 and get 3. Just work off of that and you’ll get the rest! But the answer would turn out to be C because you add 5.99 to 23.96 and you get 29.95! Hope this helped
