Answer:
585 calories are in 9 apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of apples : 3 || 5 || 8
Number of calories: 195 || 325 || 520
Find the unit rate:
[tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{325-195}{5-3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{130}{2}[/tex]
[tex]65[/tex]
Find equation:
y - 325 = 65( x -5)
y = 65x - 325 +325
y = 65x .....this is the equation to find any number of calories.
put x as 9 here:
y = 65x
y = 65(9)
y = 585 calories
