Question

Chad created a table that shows the ratio of his sports game cards.

Chad’s Cards
Card Type
Outfield
Infield
Catcher
Pitchers
Quantity
3
4
1
2

Next, Chad created the graph below showing possible ratios for Pitchers cards to Infield cards in his deck. Which of the following statements are true?

On a coordinate plane, a graph titled Chad's Cards has Damage on the x-axis and Defense on the y-axis. Points (1, 2), (2, 4), (3, 6), and (4, 8) are plotted.
Chad correctly included the points (1, 2) and (3, 6) because they maintain the same ratio of 1 Pitcher card to 2 Infield cards.
Chad should not have included the points (1, 2) and (3, 6) because these points do not maintain the same ratio between Pitchers and Infield cards.
Chad should have labeled the axes in the same order as the table to match the data presentation.
Chad needs to switch the order of each (x, y) value to show the decreasing values of the Pitchers cards

Answer 1

Only the first statement is true.

- True: (1, 2) and (3, 6) do maintain the Pitchers:Infield ratio of 2:4 = 1:2 (y = 2x if x = pitchers and y = infield).
- False: The second contradicts that fact.
- False: It's not required to order axes the same as the table; axes just need to be clearly labeled for what each coordinate represents.
- False: You do not need to swap (x,y) values — the plotted points already show the correct constant ratio.
