Answer:
The store will change $6.4 per pounds of the gourmet coffee.
Step-by-step explanation:
The price for the coffee maker is $26 and lets the price for one pound of coffee is m.
Therefore, the equation that models the total price in dollars to the total price of the coffee maker and x pounds of coffee will be given by
C = 26 + mx ......... (1)
Now, from the graph, the above equation is plotted and it passes through the point (1.25,34).
Hence, from equation (1) we get,
34 = 26 + 1.25m
⇒ m = 6.4
Therefore, the equation (1) becomes
C = 26 + 6.4x ......... (2)
Therefore, the store will change $6.4 per pounds of the gourmet coffee. (Answer)
