The table of values below represents a linear function and shows the amount of money in Juanita’s savings account since she began her part-time job. What is her monthly rate of savings?

2

Amount in Savings Account (in dollars)
$36
$60
$84
$108
$132
a.$12 per month
b.$18 per month
c.$24 per month
d.$36 per month
she has saved $36 before she gets a part time job, after 2 months, her savings have increased from 36 to 60. 2 months = 60 - 36, 2 months = 24. now we divide 24 by 2, and the answer is 12. option A is correct.
