1 onion, 3 tomatoes

Question

2 onion, 6 tomatoes
3 onion, 9 tomatoes
4 onion, 12 tomatoes
plot each ordered pair in the coordinate plane to show the ratio of onions to tomatoes in each batch

Answer 1

To plot each ordered pair in the coordinate plane, we will use the number of onions as the x-coordinate and the number of tomatoes as the y-coordinate.

For the first ordered pair (1 onion, 3 tomatoes), we have (1, 3).

For the second ordered pair (2 onions, 6 tomatoes), we have (2, 6).

For the third ordered pair (3 onions, 9 tomatoes), we have (3, 9).

For the fourth ordered pair (4 onions, 12 tomatoes), we have (4, 12).

Plotting these points in the coordinate plane, we get:

(1, 3)
(2, 6)
(3, 9)
(4, 12)

The graph would have the points plotted along the line that passes through the origin (0,0) and has a slope of 3 (since the ratio of onions to tomatoes is always 1:3).
