÷

is the equation
When dividing fractions, you "flip-flop" and multiply
So what that means is that you flip the second fraction and multiply
So

is now

Now the equation is

×

which equals

Your answer is
Y = 70x • .15
y is his total money earned.
x is how many units he sells
so if he sells 227 bikes it’s 70 • 227 which is 15,890 then times it by .15 because he makes 15% and it’s 2.383.5. so he made $2,383 50¢!
Slope is

Then you use the equation

Where b is the y-intercept. To find it, plug in x and y from one of the points. Say, point 1 (1,10):

You know m (from above) and now you can solve for b.
Rearrange terms:

And that will be the answer.
Make sense?
2(3x + 5) = 5x + 14
6x + 5 = 5x + 14
x = 14-5
x=9
The way to do this mathematically is by incorporating the Order of Operations.(Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally) This stands for (do first:) Parenthesis, then exponents, after that multiplication, now division, then addition, and finally subtraction. The side on the right then equals -5 while the side on the right equals -6. The greater value is the left side. If you have any other questions, just ask me!
