A mixture of pretzels and peanuts are placed in bags. Each bag contains 3 ounces of pretzels and 5 ounces of peanuts. Which graph has a slope that best represents the ratio of pretzels to peanuts in each bag?

Respuesta :

Using the ratio of pretzels to peanuts, it is found that a graph with a slope of 0.6 best represents the ratio of pretzels to peanuts in each bag.

The ratio of amount a relative to amount b is given by a divided by b, that is: [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex]

In this problem, we have a ratio of 3 ounces of pretzels to 5 ounces of peanuts, thus the graph has a slope of:

[tex]m = \frac{3}{5} = 0.6[/tex]

The graph that presents this situation, with a slope of 0.6, is sketched at the end of this answer.
