Can the situation be modeled by a linear equation? Explain. If possible, write an equation that gives the cost of sending a piece of mail as a function of its weight (in ounces). Weight (ounces) 1 4 5 10 12 Cost (dollars) 2.90 0.37 1.06 1.29 2.44
2.44 – 1.29 1.06 – 0.37 1.29 – 1.06 = 0.23, = 0.23, = 0.23, 10 – 5 4 – 1 5 – 4 2.90 – 2.44 = 0.23 12 – 10 for Examples 4 and 5 GUIDED PRACTICE SOLUTION STEP1 Find the rate of change for consecutive data pairs in the table.
