A pizza buffet has prepared 18 pizzas to place on the line at the beginning of lunch at 11:00 a.M. The equation y 14x + 18 can be used to describe the total number of pizzas that have been placed out on the buffet line, where x represents every 9 minutes after 11:00 a.M. Which statement best describes the rate of change in the number of pizzas set out on the buffet?

Answer: b. Every 18 minutes, 28 more pizzas were set out on the buffet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is in the form: y = mx + c

m is the gradient which represents the rate of change per a given value of x.

x here is every 9 minutes after 11:00. Every 18 minutes therefore will give x a value of 2 because 18/9 = 2.

The rate of change every 18 minutes is therefore;

= 14 * 2

= 28 pizzas
