Question

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! PLEASE!!!!

The graph shows the prices of different numbers of bushels of corn at a store in the current year. The table shows the prices of different numbers of bushels of corn at the same store in the previous year.

A graph shows the Number of Bushels on the x-axis and the Price of Corn in dollars on the y-axis. The x-axis scale is shown from 0 to 14 at increments of 2, and the y-axis scale is shown from 0 to 98 at increments of 14. A straight line joins the ordered pairs 2, 14 and 4, 28 and 6, 42 and 8, 56 and 10, 70 and 12, 84.

Part A: Describe in words how you can find the rate of change of a bushel of corn in the current year, and find the value.
Part B: How many dollars more is the price of a bushel of corn in the current year than the price of a bushel of corn in the previous year? Show your work.

Answer 1

Answer:Part A:8 Part B:$1

Explanation:

Answer 2

Part A: 7 dollars

- The graph shows that 2 bushels is 14 dollars, because the graph has a straight line, the rate remains constant you must divide the sides by two to find the amount for one bushel which would be 7 dollars.

- And to double check you would divide 28 by 4, 42 by 6, 56 by 8, 70 by 10, 84 by 11, and 98 by 12. they all equals 7 dollars So, the equation would be y = 7x.

- 7 can be known as the slope and rate of change.

Part B:2 dollars

- The years before show 2 bushes was 10 dollars

-so you would divide 10 by two you would get five To double check you would do the same thing with 20 by 4, 30 by 6 and 40 by 8, and they all equal 5 dollars.

-if you use this answer be sure to reword it so you dont get copy write and integrity. have a great day or night.
