Answer:
m = 2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
In a standard equation of y = mx + b, m is the slope. In this situation, the slope is the price paid per mile.
To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁). I will use the points (3, 8.25) & (11, 26.25)
Plug in these values:
(26.25 - 8.25) / (11 - 3)
Simplify the parentheses.
= (18) / (8)
Simplify the fraction.
18/8
= 9/4
This is your slope.
In a dollar value, it is 9/4 of a dollar, or $2.25 per mile.
We know that:
Cost (Cranberry Juice): 6.3 per quart
Cost (Apple Juice): 3.6 per quart
Quantity (Apple Juice): 4 quarts
Quantity (Cranberry Juice): q quarts
Further we know that Terrence wants the cost of the juice to be 4.5 per quart
Hence Total Cost = Cost per quart × Total Number of quarts = (Cost per quart for Apple Juice × Total Number of Apple Juice Quarts) + (Cost per quart for Cranberry Juice × Total Number of Cranberry Juice Quarts)
⇒ Total Cost = 4.5 × (q+4) = 6.3 × q + 3.6 × 4
⇒ 4.5(q+4) = 6.3q + 14.4, which matches with option D
Hence, the correct option is D
