Suppose Clare went to the store to get almonds and dried figs and spent $108. IF almonds cost $6 a pound and dried figs cost $9 a pound, Clare's purchase can be represented by the equation 6x+ 9y = 108. Here are two graphs that represent the relationship between pounds of almonds, x, and pounds of figs, y: Graph A Graph B pounds of almonds pounds of almonds 1. Without calculating anything, can you tell which graph could represent the equation and which graph could not? 2. Find the vertical intercept of the graph (give the ordered pair). What does the vertical intercept mean in this situation? pounds of dried figs pounds of dried figs

Suppose Clare went to the store to get almonds and dried figs and spent $108. IF almonds cost $6 a pound and
dried figs cost $9 a pound, Clare's purchase can be represented by the equation 6x+9y 108.
Here are two graphs that represent the relationship between pounds of almonds, x, and pounds of figs, y:
Graph A
Graph B
pounds of almonds
pounds of almonds
1. Without calculating anything, can you tell which graph could represent the equation and which graph could not?
2. Find the vertical intercept of the graph (give the ordered pair). What does the vertical intercept mean in this situation?
