From the information provided, we can analyze the situation:
-
The point (3, 1) on the graph indicates that when Jason worked for 3 hours, he completed 1 puzzle. This means that Jason can complete 1/3 of a puzzle per hour.
-
Jason’s unit rate is the rate at which he completes puzzles per hour. Since he takes 3 hours to complete 1 puzzle, his unit rate is 1/3 puzzles per hour.
-
If we assume his rate remains constant, Jason completes 5 puzzles in about 15 hours (because \(5 \text{ puzzles} \times 3 \text{ hours per puzzle} = 15 \text{ hours}\)).
Therefore, filling in the blanks:
Jason loves putting puzzles together. He made a graph representing the number of puzzles he completed, y, based on the number of hours he worked on the puzzles, x. The graph of this information is shown below. A linear graph is depicted. The y-axis ranges from 1 through 7 and the x-axis ranges from 0 through 7. The line starts from the origin and ends in the top right.
The point (3, 1) means that Jason can complete 1/3 of a puzzle per hour. Jason’s unit rate is 1/3 puzzles per hour. Jason completes 5 puzzles in about 15 hours.
