Question

Use the table and image to answer the question.

This table illustrates the cost to rent a boat based on the number of hours.
Cost to Rent a Boat
Number of Hours Total Cost
0 0
1 125
2 250
3 375
4 500
A coordinate graph titled Cost to Rent a Boat is labeled number of hours on the x-axis ranging from 0 to 4 in increments of 1 and total cost on the y-axis from 0 to 500 in increments of 125. Five points are plotted. The coordinates of the plotted points are as follows: left parenthesis 0 comma 0 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 1 comma 125 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 2 comma 250 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 3 comma 375 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 4 comma 500 right parenthesis.

The equation for the data presented in the table and graph is: Number of Hours x $125 per Hour = Total Cost. Which of the following describes how the table, the graph, and the equation are related?

1 answer

The correct response is:

The table, graph, and equation all represent the same relationship.

This is because the table provides the data points showing how the total cost increases with the number of hours, the graph visually represents that relationship, and the equation describes the mathematical equivalence between the number of hours rented and the total cost at a rate of $125 per hour. All three formats convey the same information about the cost of renting the boat.
