The graph shows the number of jam jars filled by two different machines over several minutes.

the equation y = 3x represents the number of jars, y, machine a fills in x min.

which equation could represent the number of jars filled by machine b?

a y = 1.5x

b y = 3x

c y = 6x

d y = 8x

a. y = 1.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Both equations are equations of a line. All options have the form:

y = a*x

where y and x are the variables and a is the slope.

The slope of the equation corresponding to machine B is less than the machine A's slope (machine A line is above machine B line). The only option in which the slope is less than 3 is y = 1.5*x.

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|
