Let's analyze each question and your answers:
Question 1: You need to describe what the point (4, 8) represents in the context of the graph showing the number of eggs used for batches of chocolate chip cookies.
- The point (4, 8) means that at 4 batches of cookies, 8 eggs are used.
- So, your answers should be:
- The number 4 represents batches of cookies produced.
- The number 8 represents eggs used to produce 4 batches of cookies.
Your answers seem accurate for this part.
Question 2: You are asked for the unit rate in this situation.
If the point (4, 8) indicates that 8 eggs are used to produce 4 batches, you can find the unit rate by dividing the number of eggs by the number of batches:
\[ \text{Unit rate} = \frac{8 \text{ eggs}}{4 \text{ batches}} = 2 \text{ eggs per batch} \]
So, the correct answer is that the unit rate for this situation is 2 eggs used per batch of chocolate chip cookies produced.
Your previous statement simply states "eggs used per batch," but it would be more precise to say 2 eggs used per batch.
In conclusion, your answers for Question 1 are correct, but make sure to clarify the unit rate for Question 2 as 2 eggs per batch if that was intended.
