Question

the table shows the number of apples mr.wu needs for different serving sizes of apple crisp

apples servings
3 5
6 10
9 15
12 20

plot each ordered pair in the coordinate plane to show the ratio of apples to servings

Answer 1

which ordered pair shows an equivalent ratio of apples to serving sizes?

(18,35)
(25,15)
(15,25)
(15,30)

Answer 2

(3, 5), (6, 10), (9, 15), (12, 20)

The plot would show a straight line with a slope of 5/3 passing through the points (3, 5), (6, 10), (9, 15), and (12, 20).

Answer 3

To find the equivalent ratio, we need to simplify the fractions for each ordered pair.

1. (18, 35): the ratio is 18/35 which cannot be simplified, so this is not an equivalent ratio.
2. (25, 15): the ratio is 25/15 = 5/3 which is the same as the original ratio of 3/5, so this is an equivalent ratio.
3. (15, 25): the ratio is 15/25 = 3/5 which is the same as the original ratio of 3/5, so this is an equivalent ratio.
4. (15, 30): the ratio is 15/30 = 1/2 which is not equivalent to the original ratio of 3/5.

Therefore, the ordered pair (25, 15) and (15, 25) show equivalent ratios of apples to serving sizes.
