Answer:
1.13
2.67
Step-by-step explanation:
Accordin to the graph we can say Water in liters is y and Flour in liters is x. We can determine the slop of the graph and the y-intercept when x=0. Let m be the slope of the graph and c is the y-intercept. The equation of the line is:
[tex]y=m*x+c[/tex]
The slope is define as:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
We can determine the slope by using any two points on the line. Lets use point 1 as (1,0.25) and point 2 as (3,1):
[tex]m=(1-0.25)/(3-1)=0.375[/tex]
Therefore the equation of the line is:
[tex]y=0.375*x+c[/tex]
We see from the graph that the line intercepts through point (0,0) therefore the equation is y=0.375x with a y-intercept of 0.
We can calculate the number of liters of flour per water at any point, let x=3
[tex]y=0.375*(3)=1.125[/tex]
We can calculate the number of liters of water per flourat any point, let y=1
[tex]x=1/(0.375)=2.67[/tex]
