The graph shown represents the possible combinations of 3-credit and 4-credit classes a student can enroll in to complete an associate’s degree program. Based on the graph, if a student enrolls in eight 3-credit classes, how many 4-credit classes will the student need to enroll in to complete this program?
A. 3
B. 8
C. 9
D. 16
Solution
Correct answer: C. 9.
Identify the variables in the graph, where x represents the number of 3-credit classes and y represents the number of 4-credit classes
According to the graph, when x = 8, y = 9
Therefore, if a student enrolls in eight 3-credit classes, they will need to enroll in nine 4-credit classes to complete the program.
The correct answer is 9, which corresponds to option C.
