parallel lines, have the same exact slope, hmmm what is the slope of y = -2/3 x + 1/3 anyway? well, low and behold, the equation is already in slope-intercept form, therefore
has a slope of -2/3.
so we're really looking for a line whose slope is -2/3 and runs through 9,4.
Let's focus on the given equation. The C represents the cost, while the x must be the number of tacos, which is what we're solving for. Since we're given the boundary that C must be 300, then the solution would be:
300 = x² - 40x + 610
x² - 40x + 310 = 0
Apply the quadratic formula where a = 1, b = -40 and c = 310. The roots of x are:
x = 29.49≈30
x = 10.51≈11
<em>Thus, she needs to sell either 30 or 11 tacos.</em>
300 = x² - 40x + 610
x² - 40x + 310 = 0
