I would answer using the mx+b = y equation. To find the slope, use the equation of m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). You can use any 2 pairs of values in the table. (2-1)/(9-7) = 1/2. Since there is a cost of the container, we will need to find the y-intercept by choosing a coordinate and then plugging it in the equation. (1,7) 1 = 7(1/2) + b 1 = 3.5 + b -2.5 = b They charge for the container is 2.5 dollars and will be consistent. Since 1 oz = 1/16 lb, then 16 oz = 1 lb 1 oz = 1/2 dollars 16 oz = 8 dollars I don’t know if I got it right but I hope it helps
