test each of the answers... for A)  how much does the graph change from x=7 to x=8 ??

yuii · Answer

This may be wrong but, if x = 7 then it would be up to 2500 for y but if it was x = 8 then y would be 5000. 


That's just my guess.

yuii · Answer

I know it's wrong.

How could someone help you at this point?  What do you still need to learn / know / do?

yuii · Answer

...What do you mean by "how could someone help you at this point?"
I'm trying my best.

danjs · Answer

yeah you are reading values decently off the graph, 
The first answer A) says there is a larger difference from x=7 to x=8, than from x=5 to x=6.
Is that the case?

mathmale · Answer

Sorry my "how could someone help you at this point?" question apparently insulted you.  That was not my intention at all.  Rather, I was asking you to tell us what kind of help you need with this particular problem right now.
