- Which day showed a decrease in the number of burgers sold compared to the previous day? Give your answer in this format. (Eg Mon)
- Each burger was sold at $3 each. How much money did the coffee shop earn from the total sales on Monday and Tuesday?
(a)
To find a decrease in a line graph, look for a decreasing slope.
The day that showed a decrease in the number of burgers sold compared to the previous day is Wednesday (Wed).
(b)
Number of burgers sold on Monday and Tuesday
= 19 + 27
= 46
Total sales on Monday and Tuesday
= 46 x 3
= $138
Answer(s): (a) Wed; (b) $138
