He spend: 1440*2.5=3600
he earn: 0.25*1440*12=4320
[because he sells 0.25/each and buy 1440 dozen so 1440*12]

4320-3600=720

If each goldfish cost $0.98 simply multiply this by the amount of fish bought:

(0.98)(12)
= 11.76

Benjamin spent $11.76 on his goldfish

What is the equation that passes through the points (-2,-4) & (8,1) ??? Please help thanks.

Marizza181 [45]

To solve a Linear equation we need to find the slope:

-4-1 / -2-8 =1/2

now that we have the slope we can find our x and y
y-1=1/2(x-8)
y=x/2-3
