A coordinate plane shows an x-axis ranging from 0 to 5 in increments of 1 and a y-axis ranging from 0 to 20 in increments of 4. The data points are left parenthesis 2 comma 8 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 3 comma 12 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 4 comma 16 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 5 comma 20 right parenthesis.

What does the point (3, 12)
mean on this coordinate plane?

The point (3, 12) on the coordinate plane indicates that when the x-value is 3, the corresponding y-value is 12. This means that for every 3 units of x, there are 12 units of y.

Therefore, the correct interpretation is:

For every 3 of x, 12 of y are needed.
