The graph shows a proportional relationship between the number of computers produced at a factory per day. In three days, 36 computers are produced; 48 computers are produced in 4 days; and 60 computers are produced in 5 days. Find the unit rate of computers per day using the graph.

Answer:

12 computers are made per day

Explanation:

I found the rate using subtraction. I took two of the points and subtracted the lower point from the higher. 48 - 36 = 12

I checked that answer by doing the equation with the next point, which is 60. So, 60 - 48 = 12.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a pattern within this trend:

36 in 3 days

48 in 4 days

60 in 5 days

This trend uses multiples of 12

12 x 3 = 36

12 x 4 = 48

12 x 5 = 60

----------------------------------------------------------------------

So, there are 12 computers made each day.

12 in 1 day

24 in 2 days

36 in 3 days

48 in 4 days

60 in 5 days

72 in 6 days

etc...
