company charges to ship
an item priority based on
the weight of the package.
According to the graph

ship a package that
weighs 3 pounds?

Answer 1

a.) $5

Explanation:

On the x-axis (weight), find the 3-pound mark. Move up to find the price. As you can see, there are two possible prices for 3 pounds: $5 and $10.

Look at the dots. If a circle is filled in, it includes that value. If it is empty, it does not include the indicated value. Therefore, the dark blue circle is the correct price.

At this spot, move over to the left to find the price:

$5

Answer 2

$5

Explanation:

Read the labels and find the relationship. Go the the bottom line labeled 'weight' and find the three pound mark. Then move up to find where the line is, showing the price for that weight. Once there, move to the left, labeled 'cost' and find the price for that weight.
