To find the slope, we can use the formula for finding the slope between two points:
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
In this case, the change in y is the change in cost and the change in x is the change in number of months.
For the given table:
(Number of months:1,2,3,4
(cost)$74,99,124,149
The change in y between the first and second months is 99 - 74 = 25.
The change in x between the first and second months is 2 - 1 = 1.
Therefore, the slope between the first and second months is 25/1 = 25.
