To analyze the purple point in the graph, let's examine the axes:
- The x-axis represents the number of gallons of gas used.
- The y-axis represents the distance traveled in miles.
The purple point's coordinates must be interpreted in relation to these axes.
From the options given:
A. Deana used 3 gallons to travel a distance of 33 miles.
B. Deana traveled at a rate of 33 miles per hour.
C. Deana used 33 gallons to travel a distance of 3 miles.
D. Deana traveled at a rate of 3 miles per hour.
To correctly answer the question, we would need to see the exact location of the purple point on the graph, specifically its coordinates for both gas used (gallons) and distance traveled (miles). However, based on common scenarios and the typical interpretation of such graphs, option A seems plausible if we generally consider the distances and gallons used in a reasonable range.
If we assume the purple point reflects a realistic distance-to-gas ratio, the best interpretation using typical values seen on such graphs would likely be option A.
Therefore, if the purple point is at (3 gallons, 33 miles), the correct answer would be:
A. Deana used 3 gallons to travel a distance of 33 miles.
If that isn't the case, please provide the specific coordinates of the purple point from the graph.
