X is 44.4 degrees and round it off to the nearest degree is 44
Choose any 2 points from the table:
<span>*10----------------------$25
*15----------------------$35
*20----------------------$45
*25----------------------$55
and find the slope of the line. Supposing we focus on
</span>*15----------------------$35
*20----------------------$45
then:
$45-$35 $10
slope = m = ------------- = ---------- = $2/mile
20-15 5
We divide both sides by 7 which makes n alone. Which is n=m/7.
