Question

A you-pick blueberry farm offers 6 lbs of blueberries for $16.50. Sketch a graph of the relationship between cost and pounds of blueberries. The slope of the line is?

Answer 1

the slope is

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

so, we need other point to calculate it

`(0,0)`

so, we have

`(0,0),(6,16.50)`
`\begin{gathered} m=(16.50-0)/(6-0) \\ m=(16.50)/(6) \\ m=(11)/(4)\approx2.75 \end{gathered}`

the slope is 11/4
