The table shows the relationship of how many pounds of cherries are needed to make a certain number of pies: Number of Pies
6
12
18
Pounds of Cherries
4
8
12

Which graph below shows plots of equivalent ratios for this situation?

A. A graph is drawn. The horizontal axis and vertical axis values are 0 to 70 in increments of 10. The horizontal axis label is Number of Pies, and the vertical axis label is Pounds of Cherries. Points are plotted on the ordered pairs 20, 30 and 30, 45 and 40, 60.

B. A graph is drawn. The horizontal axis and vertical axis values are 0 to 70 in increments of 10. The horizontal axis label is Number of Pies, and the vertical axis label is Pounds of Cherries. Points are plotted on the ordered pairs 20, 30 and 30, 30 and 40, 30.

C. A graph is drawn. The horizontal axis and vertical axis values are 0 to 70 in increments of 10. The horizontal axis label is Number of Pies, and the vertical axis label is Pounds of Cherries. Points are plotted on the ordered pairs 30, 20 and 45, 30 and 60, 40.

D. A graph is drawn. The horizontal axis and vertical axis values are 0 to 70 in increments of 10. The horizontal axis label is Number of Pies, and the vertical axis label is Pounds of Cherries. Points are plotted on the ordered pairs 20, 50 and 40, 30 and 60, 20.

C. A graph is drawn. The horizontal axis and vertical axis values are 0 to 70 in increments of 10. The horizontal axis label is Number of Pies, and the vertical axis label is Pounds of Cherries. Points are plotted on the ordered pairs 30, 20 and 45, 30 and 60, 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we take two of the original points from the data and put them in to two point form we get the following equation.

(6,4) and (12,8)

(y-4) = [(8-4)/(12-6)](x-6)

y = 2/3x

You have to start a the origin since we can only have enough ingredients to make pies and we can't start with partial pies. So move to y intercept up by 2.

Put the x values in for answer C and you'll return the y values.

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is

a
