To determine which point represents Jessie's spending on hair accessories, we need to focus on the values given: Jessie spent $10 on 3 hair accessories.

In the context of the coordinate plane:

  • The x-axis represents the number of hair accessories (which is 3).
  • The y-axis represents the amount of dollars spent (which is 10).

Therefore, the correct point that corresponds to this relationship is (3, 10).

Looking at the provided options:

  • Point A is (3, 10) – This is correct.
  • Point B is (3, 20) – This indicates spending $20, which is incorrect.
  • Point C is (5, 3) – This indicates buying 5 accessories and spending $3, which is incorrect.
  • Point D is (10, 3) – This indicates buying 10 accessories and spending $3, which is also incorrect.

So, the correct answer is Point A (3, 10).
