Answer:

The increase is linear since the data indicates that sunflowers grew by a consistent amount each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Referring to the table

\begin{array}{lcccc}\text{Month}&1&2&3&4\\ \\\text{Sunflowers}&15&17.2&19.4&21.6\end{array}

Observe that the months progress incrementally (21-1, 3-2=1, 4-3=1).

Moreover

17.2-15=2.2\ [\text{from month 1 to month 2}]\\ \\19.4-17.2=2.2\ [\text{from month 2 to month 3}]\\ \\21.6-19.4=2.2\ [\text{from month 3 to month 4}]

This indicates a linear increase in sunflower count, as the data shows a consistent monthly rise.

During a sale, 20-cent candy bars were sold at 3 for 50 cents. How much is saved on 9 bars?
tester [12383]

Answer:

B. $0.30

Detailed explanation:

1 candy bar equals $0.20

3 candy bars equal $0.50

To find the solution, let's calculate for both options:

If you buy each candy bar separately, the cost is $0.20 each. For 9, it would be:

9 x 0.20 = $1.80

If you purchase 3 at a time, they are $0.50 each set. Dividing 9 by 3, then multiplying by 0.50 gives:

9/3 = 3

3 x 0.50 = $1.50

Now calculate the difference between the individual total and the pack total:

$1.80 - $1.50 = $0.30

B. $0.30 is your final answer.
