QuestionLiam loves to read and discuss books, so he joined a book club. The first book he read as a member of the club was a novel set in ancient Rome.
The graph shows the proportional relationship between the time Liam has spent reading the novel (in hours), , and the number of pages he has read, .
What does the point represent?
In 25 hours, Liam reads 1 page of the novel.
In 1 hour, Liam read 25 pages of the novel.
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
What is this asking? The problem asks us to figure out what the point on the graph means, where the graph shows how many pages Liam reads over time. Watch out! Don't mix up the *x*-axis (time) and the *y*-axis (pages read) when interpreting the point!
STEP 2
1. Understand the axes
2. Interpret Point S
STEP 3
The *x*-axis represents the time Liam spends reading, measured in **hours**.
STEP 4
The *y*-axis represents the number of **pages** Liam has read.
STEP 5
Point has coordinates ().
STEP 6
The *x*-coordinate of means Liam has been reading for **1 hour**.
STEP 7
The *y*-coordinate of means Liam has read **25 pages**.
STEP 8
Since point is at (), it means that in **1 hour**, Liam read **25 pages** of the novel.
STEP 9
Point represents that in **1 hour**, Liam read **25 pages** of the novel.
