The school nutritionist is ordering apples for school lunches. The price for six crates of apples delivered to the school is $82. The price for 11 crates is $137. By how much does the cost increase for each additional crate of apples purchased?
O $5
O $55
O $11
O $27

The price increase is $11 per crate

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points

( 6, 82) and ( 11 ,137)

Find the rate change

m = ( y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

   = ( 137-82)/ (11-6)

    =55/5

    = 11

The price increase is $11 per crate

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents
