Hope that help you mark me brinilylist

Explanation:

Given that 5 pounds of rice at a store cost $6.50.

Then 1 pound of rice at a store cost = $6.50/5= $1.3

So the equation for the cost can be written as:

C=1.3P just like we write equation y=mx

Now we have to graph the cost C, vs pounds of rice.

Variable for Pounds of rice is not given so let it be "P"

So let's make a table for the number of pounds (P) and cost (C) we can graph the points from that table to get the final graph.

The Attached graph is the final graph.
