Question

or
Tommy's family just bought a smoothie maker that says it can blend anything into a smoothie. To test it, he blended some bell peppers and poured the smoothie into a glass. He did the same thing with potatoes, oranges, pineapple, and other fruits and vegetables. Tommy recorded how much smoothie was in each glass and offered them to his family.

Amount of smoothie

Answer 1

To create a line plot based on the amount of smoothie from the data provided, you can follow these steps:

1. **Data Summary**: First, let's summarize the amount of smoothie based on Tommy's blending results:

- **Bell Pepper**: 1 cup, 1 cup, 2 cups
- **Potato**: 1 cup, 1 cup, 2 cups
- **Orange**: 1 cup, 1 cup, 2 cups
- **Pineapple**: 1 cup, 1 cup, 2 cups
- **Strawberry**: 2 cups
- **Mango**: 1 cup

2. **Count the Amounts**:
- **1 cup**: Total of 7 occurrences (3 from Bell Peppers + 3 from Potatoes + 3 from Oranges + 3 from Pineapples + 1 from Mango)
- **2 cups**: Total of 4 occurrences (1 from Bell Pepper + 1 from Potato + 1 from Orange + 1 from Pineapple + 1 from Strawberry)

3. **Plotting**:
- You will create a number line ranging from 1 cup to 2 cups.
- Place X's above the corresponding amounts based on the frequency you counted.

4. **Final Line Plot**:

```
Amount of smoothie
1 | X X X X X X X
2 | X X X X
```

The line plot shows:
- 7 X's above 1 cup (indicating 7 times Tommy made 1 cup of smoothie).
- 4 X's above 2 cups (indicating 4 times Tommy made 2 cups of smoothie).

You can adjust the layout based on your available space, but this is the basic structure of your line plot with the data provided.
