Slope is rise/run  =   700/2 = 350      student      $350

We have these points on the graph  ( 4 , 1400)   and  (6 , 2100)

 

The slope between these points is  [ 2100 - 1400 ] / [ 6 - 4 ] = 700 / 2  = 350 / 1

 

This means that, for every additional student, the tuition cost is $350 more

 

 

cool cool cool
