The table shows the relationship of how many pounds of pecans are needed to make a certain number of pies: number of pies 3 6 9 pounds of pecans 2 4 6 which graph below shows plots of equivalent ratios for this situation?

The correct option is 1.

Explanation:

From the figure it is noticed that the number of pies is x and pounds of pecans is y.

From the given table we can conclude that the change in x is more that the change in y.

The option 2 represents that the change in y is more that x. The option 3 represents that there is no change in y as x changes. The options 4 represents that as x increases the value of y decreases, therefore only option 1 is correct.

The another method is,

From the table we can noticed that y=2 at x=3,  y=4 at x=6 and y=6 at x=9.

So the ratio of x and y is .

At x=15,

At x=30,

At x=45,

These points are satisfied by option 1, therefore option 1 is correct.

3: 2

step-by-step explanation:

shorter piece is 2: 3, so just reverse it, and you get 3: 2
