One of your friends gives you $10 for a charity walkathon -- this is your beginning amount.
Another friend gives you an amount per mile -- you will to calculate this value.
After 5 miles, you have raised $13.50 total --
-- Since one friend gave you $10.00, subtract this from the $13.50 to give you the amount by walking the 5 miles
-- $10.00 - $13.50 = $3.50
-- Since you walked 5 miles, divide $3.50 by 5 to give you $0.70 per mile earned.
So, an equation that represents the amount of money earned is: y = $0.70x+$10.00.
This is in slope-intercept form; the slope is $0.70 and represents the amount of money earned per mile and the intercept is $10.00 and represents the initial amount of money that you were given.
Number of widgets needed to make one motor = 11
Number of motors made each day = 4
Number of widgets used per day :-
= 4 × 11
= 44 widgets
Number of widgets I need to order for the next five days of the upcoming week :-
= 44 × 5
= 220 widgets
Therefore , my team should order 220 widgets for the next week ( 5 working days ) .
