11. The table below shows the cost of comic books. Number of Comic Books Total Cost (dollars) 3 3.75 5 7 8.75 10 12.50 Based on the information in the table, which is the best prediction of the cost of 12 comic books?

Answer:
$15
Step-by-step explanation:
The unit rate or how much a comic book costs = total cost ÷ number of comic books
Using any given pair, let's use the first row (3, 3.75):
Unit rate = [tex] \frac{3.75}{3} = 1.25 [/tex]
This means a comic book cost $1.25.
Therefore, 12 comic books would cost:
12 × 1.25 = $15
