Answer:

  • slope = $125 per year
  • it represents the yearly membership dues

Step-by-step explanation:

The values at two points that differ by 1 year differ by $125, so the slope is $125 per year.

The graph shows the total cost of membership, which includes the initiation fee (y-intercept) and yearly membership dues (increase per year). The slope represents the increase per year: the yearly membership dues.
