$\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1\\
% (a,b)
&({{ -2}}\quad ,&{{ 4}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{2}{5}
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})}\implies y-4=\cfrac{2}{5}[x-(-2)]
\implies 
y-4=\cfrac{2}{5}(x+2)
\\\\\\
y-4=\cfrac{2}{5}x+\cfrac{4}{5}\implies y=\cfrac{2}{5}x+\cfrac{4}{5}+4\implies y=\cfrac{2}{5}x+\cfrac{24}{5}$

Answer: 1.25 dollars per roll

Step-by-step explanation:

If the relationship is graphed with the number of rolls sold on the x-axis and the money earned on the y-axis

Then the two points on that line will be (14,17.50) and (16,20)

We know that the slope of a lien with points $(x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2)$ is give by:-

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Hence, the slope of the graph with points (14,17.50) and (16,20) is given by :-

$Slope=\frac{20-17.50}{16-14}=\frac{2.50}{2}=1.25$

Therefore, the slope of the graph = 1.25 dollars per roll.
