Given:
f(x) = 70n - 400 : equation for monthly profit.
n = number of students enrolled in the guitar class.
70 refers to the amount charged per student.
400 is the fixed expense made by the instructor.
For the instructor to have a profit, the product of 70n must be more than 400.
400/70 = 5.7 or 6
There must be at least 6 students enrolled in class for the instructor to generate profit.
f(x) = 70(6) - 400 = 420 - 400 = 20
1000 = 70n - 400
1000 + 400 = 70n
1400 = 70n
1400/70 = n
20 = n
There must be 20 students enrolled in class for the instructor to earn 1000 in profit.
1000 = 70(20) - 400
1000 = 1400 - 400
1000 = 1000
Mult
div
baseically, x is the base, and m and n are bases
you can only use this property if bases are same
baseically
multiply means add powers
divide means subtract bottom power from top
Find the ratio of the given one: 20/200 = 0.1
this means the sugar (y) is 0.1 amount of soda (x)
Multiply the amount of soda by 0.1:
Formula is y = 0.1x
