    Using the data, we can calculate the price per bottle for Brand A, which is:

    24 / 2

    = $12 per bottle

    We also know that the slope of a line shows the rate of change, so the price per bottle for Brand B is $15.

    The difference per bottle is 15 - 12 = Brand B is cost $3 more per bottle

    The difference for 9 bottles will be: 9 * 3 = $27.
