Answer:
- g = -1110p +4300.9
- 804 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Price is the independent variable, so the data we are given can be written as ...
(price, gallons) = (2.99, 982) and (2.79, 1204)
Using the 2-point form of the equation for a line, we have ...
g = (g2 -g1)/(p2 -p1)(p -p1) +g1
g = (1204 -982)/(2.79 -2.99)(p -2.99) +982
g = -1110(p -2.99) +982 = -1110p +4300.9
g = -1110p +4300.9
__
b) When p = 3.15, the predicted sales volume is ...
g = -1110(3.15) +4300.9 = 804.4
Weekly sales are predicted to be 804 gallons at a price of $3.15.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 6, y =3
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-7y=3
x-7y=-15
Multiply the first equation by -1
-4x+7y=-3
Then add this to the second equation to eliminate y
-4x+7y=-3
x-7y=-15
------------------
-3x +0y = -18
-3x = -18
Divide by -3
-3x/-3 = -18/-3
x = 6
Now find y
x -7y = -15
6 -7y = -15
Subtract 6 from each side
6-7y-6 = -15-6
-7y = -21
Divide by -7
-7y/-7 = -21/-7
y =3
