Question

The graph shows the relationship between the distance a car is driven and the number of gallons of gasoline used. Identify the value of d in the point (1, d). What does that point represent?

A. d=25; the unit rate is 25 miles per gallon

B. d=25; the unit rate is 25 gallons per mile

C. d=50; the unit rate is 50 miles per gallon

D. d=50; the unit rate is 50 gallons per mile

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

The "x" coordinate goes before the y coordinate. For example, it is (x, y)

To solve:

When the x coordinate, or the gasoline used (In gallons) is 1, then we need to find what d is.

On the graph, d = 25 miles per gallon.

So, the answer is B.
