To determine which graph models a relationship with the same unit rate as $3.50 for 25 fl. oz. of detergent, we first need to find the unit rate.
- Calculate the unit rate:
- Convert the cost into cents: $3.50 = 350 cents.
- Calculate the cost per ounce: \[ \text{Unit Rate} = \frac{350 \text{ cents}}{25 \text{ fl. oz.}} = 14 \text{ cents per fl. oz.} \]
Now, you should look for a graph that represents the relationship where the cost increases consistently by 14 cents for every additional fluid ounce.
If the options provided (A, B, C, or D) show a straight line graph that starts from the origin (0,0) and has a slope of 14 cents per fl. oz., then that is the correct graph.
Without being able to see the graphs directly, I suggest you look for:
- A linear relationship that starts at (0,0).
- A slope that indicates an increase of 14 cents for every 1 fl. oz. increase.
If you can match any of the graphs to these criteria, you would have found the one that models a relationship with the same unit rate.
