Word Problem 3

Please help me with this. I need to examine the rise in gas prices from 1997 to 2006. Gas in 1997 was $1.26 and in 2006 the price was $2.31 per gallon. Use the coordinates of (1997,1.26) and (2006, 2.31) to find the slope, or rate of chnage, between the two points and provide explanation. Thank you.

After some time, I figured it out. Thank you.
