Question

the picture and sound electronics store has hired destiny to work in the warehouse. she uses a pulley with a hand crank to lift heavy boxes. the graph shows the proportional relationship between the number of times destiny turns the crank to lift a box, x, and the height the box has been lifted (in feet), y. what does the point t represent? she turns the crank 25 times to lift a box 50 feet. she turns the crank 50 times to lift a box 25 feet.

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the axes

The \(x -\)axis represents the number of times the crank is turned. The \(y -\)axis represents the height (in feet).

Step2: Locate the point \(T\)

For point \(T\), looking at the \(x -\)value (horizontal axis), assume \(x = 50\) (by visual inspection of the graph's scale). Looking at the \(y -\)value (vertical axis), \(y=25\).

Answer:

She turns the crank 50 times to lift a box 25 feet.
