Question

A company produces accessories for smart phones and tablets. The profit on each smart phone case is $2, and the profit on each tablet case is $3. The company made a profit of $1,200 on the cases last month. The equation 2x + 3y = 1,200 represents the company's profit from cases last month, where x is the number of smart phone cases sold and y is the number of tablet cases sold. 1. Change the equation into slope-intercept form. Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation.

Answer 1

Answer:400

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 1200

3y = -2x + 1200

y = (-2x/3)x + 1200/3  

the slope is -2/3x the y intercept is 40
