A graph with the x-axis representing sticks of butter ranging from 0 to 10 in increments of 1 and the y-axis representing cups of water ranging from 0 to 10 in increments of 1 shows three plotted points, 2 for option A and 1 for option B. Option A has the following points: left parenthesis 2 comma 3 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 4 comma 6 right parenthesis. Option B has the following point: left parenthesis 3 comma 4 right parenthesis.

Based on the tables and coordinate plane, identify the missing equivalent ratios from the coordinate plane.

1 answer

To identify the missing equivalent ratios from the coordinate plane based on the two options (A and B), we can analyze the provided information.

For Option A:

From the table:

  • \(2\) sticks of butter corresponds to \(3\) cups of water
  • \(4\) sticks of butter corresponds to \(6\) cups of water
  • \(6\) sticks of butter corresponds to \(9\) cups of water

The ratios for Option A can be expressed as:

  • \( \frac{2}{3} \)
  • \( \frac{4}{6} \) which simplifies to \( \frac{2}{3} \)
  • \( \frac{6}{9} \) which simplifies to \( \frac{2}{3} \)

Thus, all points (2, 3), (4, 6), and (6, 9) represent the equivalent ratio \( \frac{2}{3} \).

For Option B:

From the table:

  • \(3\) sticks of butter corresponds to \(4\) cups of water
  • \(6\) sticks of butter corresponds to \(8\) cups of water

The ratios for Option B can be expressed as:

  • \( \frac{3}{4} \)
  • \( \frac{6}{8} \) which simplifies to \( \frac{3}{4} \)

Thus, both points (3, 4) and (6, 8) represent the equivalent ratio \( \frac{3}{4} \).

Missing Points in the Graph:

The coordinate plane shows plotted points for Option A as (2, 3) and (4, 6), and one point from Option B as (3, 4). However, it seems that there is no point representing (6, 8) from Option B on the graph.

Conclusion:

The missing equivalent ratio that should be included on the coordinate plane is the point (6, 8) from Option B, as it represents the equivalent ratio to \( \frac{3}{4} \) which corresponds with the other point already graphed (3, 4).

So, the equivalent ratio (6, 8) is the missing entry in the coordinate plane.
