Q:

The graph shows the first four ordered pairs formed by corresponding terms of two patterns.Which ordered pair would be the fifth point on this graph?

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:The correct option is C. (12, 4).Step-by-step explanation:Consider the provided graph.It is given that graph shows the first four ordered pairs formed by corresponding terms of two patterns.The coordinates of points shown in graph is:A   B0   0 3   16   29   3As we can observe the value of A is increasing by 3 and the value of B is increasing by 1. That means the next ordered pair will follows the same pattern.Thus the next ordered pair is: (9+3, 3+1) = (12, 4)Hence, the fifth point on this graph is (12, 4).Thus, the correct option is C. (12, 4).
