We will call:
M=Mari
J=Jen

Initial equations:

M=2J
M+J=480
(the fact that they work 20 hours a week is not needed in this problem information)

Plug in:
2J+J=480
3J=480
J=160

Jen makes $160 a week.

Therefore:

M=2J
M=2(160)
M=320

Mari makes $320 per week
Jen makes $160 per week

Members of the student concil are conducting a fundraiser by selling school calendars. After selling 80 calendars, they had a lo
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

a)  y=8x-1000

b) profit=\$8

c) They'd have lost $1000 if they had sold no calendars.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

In this case we know that "y" represents the profit of loss and "x" the number of calendars sold.

Then, according to the exercise, the line passes through these two points:

(80,-360) and (200,600)

Then, we can find the slope of the line with the formula m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-360-600}{80-200}=8

Now, we can substitute the slope and one of those points into y=mx+b and solve for "b":

600=8(200)+b\\\\b=-1000

Then, subtituting values, we get that the equation that describes the relation between the profit of loss and the number of calendars sold, is:

y=8x-1000

b) The slope of the line is the profit they made from selling each calendar

profit=8

c) The y-intercept is the amount they would have lost if they had sold no calendars:

b=-1000

They'd have lost $1000 if they had sold no calendars.

sweet [91]
35 because if you half the amount of salads he's eaten (seeing as he eats one burger for every two salads) then the extra one is the first salad in the cycle.
