Andrew is counting the total calories in his breakfast. He knows that a bowl of his favorite cereal with milk has 200 calories. He also likes to drink a fruit smoothie with his cereal. Each ounce of the smoothie adds 25 calories. Which graph represents the total calories, y, in Andrew's breakfast if he drinks x ounces of fruit smoothie with his cereal?

Answer 1

The correct graph would be a line graph where the x-axis represents the number of ounces of fruit smoothie Andrew drinks and the y-axis represents the total calories in his breakfast. The graph will start at 200 calories when Andrew doesn't drink any smoothie and will increase by 25 calories for each ounce of smoothie he drinks. The graph will have a positive slope, showing a linear relationship between the number of ounces of smoothie and the total calories in Andrew's breakfast.
