Jeremy sells pencils. His daily sales have been linear. Jeremy sold 20 pencils on the first day, 23 pencils on the second day, and 26 pencils on the third day. A function can model Jeremy’s sequence. What is the slope of that function?

the slope is 3 because M= y2-y1 over x2-x1. secondly you subtitude this formular with the number that are given . (1,20) (2,23) than. now you need to subtitude the number onto the equation. and solve . the answer is 3
