Will bought 4 slices of pizza for $6.00.Let x represent the number of slices of pizza purchased, and let y represent the total cost.Graph the line that represents the proportional relationship.

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer: The graph of line [tex]y = \frac{3}{2} x[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:Since, here x represent the number of slices of pizza purchased, and let y represent the total cost.And, According to the question, Will bought 4 slices of pizza for $6.00.Therefore, the price of one slice pizza = 6/4 = $3/2Thus, the price of x pizza = 3x/2But, the price of x pizza = yTherefore, y = 3x/2Which is the required equation of line.And, this line passes through the origin.If x =2 y =3If x= 4 y = 6If x = 8 , y= 12Thus, the points of the line are ( 2,3), (4,6) and (8,12)Therefore, we can plot the graph of the line with help of above information.
