Question

complete the statement that describes the situation. the booster club raised $120 at the car wash. the club will raise for every cupcake it sells. cupcakes sold total raised $40 $80 $120 $160 $200 $240 $280 $320 $360

Explanation:

Step1: Identify two points on the line

From the graph, when cupcakes sold (\(x\)) is 0, total raised (\(y\)) is \$120. When \(x = 20\), \(y=\$160\).

Step2: Calculate the slope (rate of change)

The slope \(m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}=\frac{160 - 120}{20 - 0}=\frac{40}{20} = 2\). This means for each cupcake sold, the total raised increases by \$2.

Answer:

\$2
