Question

this graph shows how the number of crates of screws that garrisons construction has left is related to the number of houses that the company builds.
crates of screws remaining
if garrisons construction builds 200 houses, how many crates of screws will be left?
_____ crates

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the x - value

We are given that the number of houses built is 200, so we look at the x - axis (number of houses) and find the point where x = 200.

Step2: Find the corresponding y - value

We then move vertically (up or down) from x = 200 on the x - axis until we intersect the line on the graph. Then we move horizontally to the y - axis (crates of screws remaining) to find the corresponding value. From the graph, when x = 200 (number of houses), the y - value (crates of screws remaining) is 300.

Answer:

300
