Question

The graph shows the relationship between time
and the number of soda bottles a machine can
make. Use the points (4,96) and (6,144) to find
the number of soda bottles the machine can make
each minute.

Answer 1

Answer:

The machine can make 24 bottles of soda per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the graph of the relationship, we can see that the number of bottles per minute simply represent the slope of the line

Thus, by calculating the slope using the given points, we can have the number of bottles per minute

We have the formula as;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(x1,y1) = (4,96)

(x2,y2) = (6,144)

m = (144-96)/(6-4) = 48/2 = 24
