To identify another point on the graph, we can use the concept of direct proportionality.
Given that the amount of water is directly proportional to the number of cups of rice, we can set up a proportion using the given point (1/2, 1) and another point (x, y) on the graph.
The proportion is: 1/2 : 1 = x : y
Cross multiplying, we have 2x = y.
Now we can check which of the given points satisfies this relationship:
A: (2, 6) -> 2(2) = 6 (not satisfied)
B: (3/2, 3) -> 2(3/2) = 3 (satisfied)
C: (1/4, 2) -> 2(1/4) = 1/2 (not satisfied)
D: (2/3, 4) -> 2(2/3) = 4/3 (not satisfied)
Therefore, the point (3/2, 3) satisfies the relationship, so the correct answer is B: (3/2, 3).
The amount of water is directly proportional to the number of cups of rice. The coordinate (1/2, 1) is on the graph of this proportional relationship. Identify another point on the graph.
A: (2, 6)
B: (3/2, 3)
C: (1/4, 2)
D: (2/3, 4)
