Question

pizza general charges 10 dollars per medium pizza. what does the slope mean in this situation? slope = \\(\frac{\text{vertical distance}}{\text{horizontal distance}}\\) = 10 each additional pizza costs 10 more dollars. 10 pizzas cost 1 dollar.

Explanation:

The slope represents the rate of change of total cost (y-axis) with respect to the number of pizzas (x-axis). A slope of 10 means for each increase of 1 in the number of pizzas, the total cost increases by 10 dollars, which matches the given price per medium pizza. The second option is incorrect as it reverses the relationship.

Answer:

Each additional pizza costs 10 more dollars.
