Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • 5 uniforms = $66
  • 9 uniforms = $114

Rate of change is, considering two points of (5, 66) and (9, 114):

  • (114 - 66)/(9-5) = 48/4 = 12

Expressing the relationship as function

  • y = 12x + b
  • 66 = 5*12 + b
  • b = 6
  • y = 12x + 6

Independent variable = number of uniforms

Dependent variable = total cost

Rate of change = 12

Slope = Rate of change = 12
