Question

d
=
number of dollars
p
=
number of pounds

Drag each table and equation to the unit rate it matches.

Answer 1

Answer:

General equation of line : $y = mx+c$   --1

Where m is the slope or unit rate

Table 1)

p    d

1      3

2     6

4     12

d = Number of dollars (i.e.y axis)

p = number of pound(i.e. x axis)

First find the slope

First calculate the slope of given points

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$   ---A

$(x_1,y_1)=(1,3)$

$(x_2,y_2)=(2,6)$

Substitute values in A

$m = \frac{6-3}{2-1}$

$m = 3$

Thus the unit rate is 3 dollars per pound.

So, It matches the box 1 (Refer the attached figure)

Equation 1 : $p=3d$

$\frac{p}{3}=d$

Since p is the x coordinate and d is the y coordinate

On Comparing with 1

$m = \frac{1}{3}$

Thus the unit rate is $\frac{1}{3}$ dollars per pound

So, It matches the box 2 (Refer the attached figure)

Equation 2 : $\frac{1}{3}d=3p$

$d=9p$

Since p is the x coordinate and d is the y coordinate

On Comparing with 1

$m =9$

Thus the unit rate is 9 dollars per pound

So, It matches the box 3 (Refer the attached figure)

Table 2)

p        d

1/9      1

1         9

2        18

d = Number of dollars (i.e.y axis)

p = number of pound(i.e. x axis)

$(x_1,y_1)=(\frac{1}{9},1)$

$(x_2,y_2)=(1,9)$

Substitute values in A

$m = \frac{9-1}{1-\frac{1}{9}}$

$m = \frac{8}{frac{8}{9}}$

$m = 9$

Thus the unit rate is 9 dollars per pound

So, It matches the box 3 (Refer the attached figure)
