Describe the graph of the proportional relationship between the two quantities and describe how the unit rate is represented on the graph. Bananas are $2.40 per pound. a
The graph of y = 24x , which is a line passing through (0, 0) with a slope of 24; the slope 24 is the unit rate of each pound of bananas.

b
The graph of y = 2.4x , which is a line passing through (0, 0) with a slope of 2.4; the slope 2.4 is the unit rate of each pound of bananas.

c
The graph of y = 5.8x , which is a line passing through (0, 0) with a slope of 5.8; the slope 5.8 is the unit rate of each pound of bananas.

d
The graph of y = 2.4 + x , which is a line passing through (0, 0) with a slope of 2.4; the slope -2.4 is the unit rate of each pound of bananas.

Given:

Bananas are $2.40 per pound.

To find:

The graph and unit rate on the graph.

Solution:

Let y be the total cost of x pounds of bananas.

Cost of 1 pound of banana = $2.40

Cost of x pound of bananas = $2.40x

So, the required equation for the given situation is:

The graph of describes the proportional relationship between the two quantities.

The graph of is a line passing through (0, 0) with a slope of 2.4; the slope 2.4 is the unit rate of each pound of bananas.

Therefore, the correct option is (b).

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)
