You are given the area and the width, so to find the length, divide the area by the width:

Length = Area /  width

A company is selling books. It has to pay $500 to start printing the books, and once they have done that, the books sell at $14.99 each. How many books must they sell to make a profit?

First we would model an equation. X will be the amount of books sold, and Y will be profits (in dollars obv). They had to pay $500 before they could start selling, so we must account for that too.

This equation would be y=14.99x-500 because for every book sold, X increases by 1, increasing Y by 14.99

The answer would be 34 books sold in order to turn a profit. (500/14.99=

use the given conditions to write an equation for the line in point slope form passing through (-5,7) and (-8,6)
KengaRu [80]
Point slope form is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
where slope=m
and (x1,y1) is a given point

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(6-7)/(-8-(-5))=-1/(-8+5)=-1/-3=1/3

pick any point
(x,y)
(-5,7)

y-7=1/3(x+5) or
y-6=1/3(x+8)

Write a equation for (-6, -3)
Vlad [161]

<u>Answer</u>:

equation: y = x/2

<u>Explanation</u>:

let the points be  (-6, -3) ,  ( 0, 0)

slope: \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

         : \frac{0--3}{0--6}

         : \frac{1}{2}

Equation using:

y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )

y - - 3 = 1/2( x - - 6 )

y + 3 = x/2 + 3

y\\ = \frac{x}{2}
