Question

On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled Pepperoni Pizzas and the y-axis is labeled Cheese Pizzas. Point A is (3, 2), point B is (6, 9), point C is (6, 7), and point D is (8, 12). A 2-column table has 2 rows. Column 1 is labeled Pepperoni Pizzas (x) with entries 2, 4. Column 2 is labeled Cheese pizzas (y) with entries 3, 6.
Which points on the graph represent values that could be in the table?
A
B
C
D

Answer 1

B and D.

Reason: The table gives (2,3) and (4,6), so y = 1.5x. Check points:
- B(6,9): 9 = 1.5·6 → yes.
- D(8,12): 12 = 1.5·8 → yes.
- A and C do not satisfy y = 1.5x.
