Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line is written in the slope-intercept form, which is: y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept. In our equation, y = 6x + 2, we see that the slope of the line is 6.
Hope this helps :)
So firstly, we have to find f(x) when x = 8 and x = 0. Plug the two numbers into the x variable of the function to solve for their f(x):

Now that we have their y's, we can use the slope, aka average rate of change, formula, which is
. Using what we have, we can solve it as such:

In short, the average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 8 is 5/21.
To compare the answers, you need to have the same denominator.
We know that, 18 is a common denominator between 6 and 9.
(5/6)*3/3 => 15/18 (ALMONDS)
(7/9)*2/2 => 14/18 (CASHEWS)
As seen, the weight of almonds is 1/18 bigger than the cashews.

I think the correct answer is conjunction...
