Answer:
-25 dollars per month
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to compute the rate of change using points where the graph crosses grid intersections. A couple of these are ...
(months, dollars) = (1, 675) and (4, 600)
Using the slope formula, we have ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (600 -675)/(4 -1) = -75/3 = -25 . . . . . dollars/month
