What does the slope mean in context? Response area E. If Jodi paid $18.50 for her meal, how many side dishes did she get?
A. The y-intercept is 11.
B. In this context, the y-intercept represents the base cost of buying a meal with one meat, without any side dishes.
C. The slope is 1.25.
D. In this context, the slope represents the additional cost for each side dish added to the meal.
E. To find the number of side dishes Jodi got, we can substitute the total cost ($18.50) into the equation:
18.50 = 11 + 1.25x
Subtracting 11 from both sides:
7.50 = 1.25x
Dividing both sides by 1.25:
x = 6
So Jodi got 6 side dishes with her meal.
