Answer:
- Slope = 4
- The slope is the unit rate at which the number of small packs of fruit snacks [tex]y[/tex] per box [tex]x[/tex] increases.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find slope, use the two points formula:
[tex]\boxed{\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}[/tex]
We can pick any two points
(3, 12)
(5, 20)
Plug these points into the formula. The first [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex] values will be [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]y_1[/tex], while the second ones will be the second values.
[tex]\frac{20-12}{5-3}=\frac{8}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{8}{2}=4[/tex]
[tex]\bold{m=4}[/tex]
This is a positive slope, so therefore, the slope is the unit rate at which the number of small packs of fruit snacks [tex]y[/tex] per box [tex]x[/tex] increases.
