Answer:

585 calories are in 9 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of apples :   3   ||   5    || 8

Number of calories: 195 || 325 || 520

Find the unit rate:

[tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{325-195}{5-3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{130}{2}[/tex]

[tex]65[/tex]

Find equation:

y - 325 = 65( x -5)

y = 65x - 325 +325

y = 65x .....this is the equation to find any number of calories.

put x as 9 here:

y = 65x

y = 65(9)

y = 585 calories
