Suraj took a slice of pizza from the freezer and put it in the oven. The pizza was heated at a constant rate.

The table compares the pizza's temperature (in degrees Celsius) and the time since Suraj started heating it (in minutes).

Answer:

The pizza heats up an average of 7.50 degrees per minute

Explanation:

The table shown

Time (minutes) Temperature (degrees Celsius)

1 2.52

7 47.547

13 92.592

Since the pizza was heated at a constant rate, we can model the experiment as a line, where the slope represents how fast the pizza was heated

Slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Let

(x1,y1) = (7, 47.547)

(x2,y2) = (13, 92.592)

m = (92.592 - 47.547)/(13-7)

m = 7.5075

The pizza heats up an average of 7.50 degrees per minute
