Answer:
The car dealer must sell 105 cars in May to reach his goal.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the car dealer sold 84 cars in April, and wants to increase his May sales by 25%, to determine the number of cars he must sell to reach his goal it is necessary to perform the following calculation:
84 + (84 x 0.25) = X
84 + 21 = X
105 = X
Therefore, the car dealer must sell 105 cars in May to reach his goal.
The graph is misleading because it appears to be showing a huge increase, however, it is showing this increase over a huge time span of 13 years, which is actually quite a small amount for only a few hundred customer increase.
Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
(m is the slope, b is the y-intercept or the y value when x = 0 --> (0, y) or the point where the line crosses through the y-axis)
Since you know:
m = -2
b = 5 Substitute/plug it into the equation
y = mx + b
y = -2x + 5
Add up the sides and you will get your perimeter
