Given:
The number of tablespoon is T.
The number of teaspoon is X.
The objective is to write formula and make a graph for the statement, Number of tablespoons T = the number of teaspoons X divided by 3.
Explanation:
The equation can be written as,
[tex]T=\frac{X}{3}[/tex]To plot the graph:
Consider 3 values of X -3, 0, 3.
Substitute the values of X in the obtained equation to find the value of T.
At X = -3,
[tex]\begin{gathered} T=\frac{-3}{3} \\ T=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the coordinate is (-3,-1).
At X = 0,
[tex]\begin{gathered} T=\frac{0}{3} \\ T=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the coordinate is (0,0).
At X = 3,
[tex]\begin{gathered} T=\frac{3}{3} \\ T=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the coordinate is (3,1).
On plotting the coordinates in the graph,
Hence, the required equation is T = (X/3) and the graph of the equation is obtained.
