Point C
Explanation: honestly I’m just giving a wild guess so sorry if it’s wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
gradient(m)=change in y/change in x
=5-1/-9-(-4)
=4/-9+4
=4/-5
equation now
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-1=4/-5[x-(-4)]
y=4/-5(x+4)+1
y=-4/5x-16/5+1
y=-4/5x-21/5
The slope is 0.5 tablespoon per minute, which you can deduct from the increase of y from one minute to the next.
The initial value (at x=0) is 1. So the equation is:
y = 0.5x + 1. That's the last one in the list, answer D.
