Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

For each additional pound, the price increases $1.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets find the slope of the graph of othe given data.

Let x be the weight of pumpkin in pounds

Let y be the price of the pumpkin in dollars.

For 4 pound pumpkin the price is 6 dollars, so first point is (4,6)

For 8 pound pumpkin the price is 12 dollars, so first point is (8,12)

Find the slope between these points

m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

m = 12 - 6 / 8 -4

m = 6/4

m = 1.5

Which means that for every pound increase in weight, the price of pumpkin increases by 1.5 dollars
