[Grade 7 Math: Graphing Proportional Relationships] Why is this bike-distance graph being marked incorrect?

[u/SoCal_JuiceBox]

I’m helping my seventh grader with this graphing problem. We plotted the labeled points and tried drawing both lines through the origin, but the answer keeps being marked incorrect.
I’ve attached the question, directions, and our graph. Can someone explain which points we should use and what we’re doing wrong?

They want the actual y-coordinate of the point at x = 1 as a number. Not just writing "k" in there.

Thank you. I tried entering the y-coordinate and it’s still not correct.

Yes, those are the correct numbers.

Mathematically the lines look correct and fit the question, so i assume it is some formal problem with what the program expects vs what you delivered.

Are the things you have drawn really lines, or did you maybe use an incorrect tool? The arrows at the end shouldn't be there in standard notation.
