Use the information to answer the question. The graph shows the relationship between the number of pounds of
potatoes purchased and the total cost of the potatoes.
What is the cost of 1 pound of potatoes? Enter the answer in the
box,
5
Total Cost (5)
0

$2.25 per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph attached shows the relation between the weight of the potatoes and cost of potatoes purchased.

Cost of 1 pound of potatoes will be represented by the slope of the given line.

Since slope of a line passing through two points and is given by the formula,

Slope =

Therefore, slope of the line passing through (0, 0) and (2, 4.5) will be,

Slope =

          = 2.25

Therefore, cost of potatoes is $2.25 per pound.

the slope of the line is 60

one point on the line is (40,10)

step-by-step explanation:

in the equation outside the parenthesis the equation always tells you the slope. in this case it is 60.

in the parenthesis is also says 40 which is x because it is near the x and 10 is y because it is near y.
