Question

Mrs. Brown hosts an yearly art contest keeps a record of the number of entries each year.

Answer 1

1. Slope = rate of change
Shown on the graph, for 2016 there are 36 entries. For 2017, there are 40
Since it’s only one year
You can subtract 36 from 40
40 - 36 = 4
Solution: the slope is 4

2. Months increase the most, the lines which are steeper and going upward (since it’s increasing)
Solution: from 2015 to 2016
