The graph below shows the price, y, in dollars, of different amounts of gumballs, x, in pounds:

A graph titled Gumball Prices shows Number of Pounds on x axis and Price in dollars on y axis. The scale on the x axis shows numbers from 0 to 12 at increments of 2, and the scale on the y axis shows numbers from 0 to 24 at increments of 4. A straight line joins the ordered pairs 0, 0 and 12, 24

Which equation best represents the relationship between x and y?

y = 2x
y = x + 2
y = 4x
y = x + 2

Answer :

Answer:

y=2x is the answer. Just got down with the test and the was the answer.                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

The equation of the line is y = 2x if the straight line joins the ordered pairs (0, 0) and (12, 24) option first is correct.

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have two point the straight line joins the ordered pairs (0, 0) and (12, 24)

We can find the equation of the line using the points (0, 0) and (12, 24)

(y - 24) = (24-0)/(12-0)(x - 12)

y - 24 = 2(x - 12)

y - 24 = 2x -24

y = 2x

Thus, the equation of the line is y = 2x if the straight line joins the ordered pairs (0, 0) and (12, 24) option first is correct.
