The slope is 100/1 and represents how much the price go up per unit manufactured. The y-intercept represents the starting cost without any manufactures.
A. The slope here is 100. The slope can be thought of as the increase in y over the increase in x; in this problem, for <u>every</u> unit that is manufactured (x), the cost goes up <u />by <u>100</u> (y). 100/1 is 100. It represents the<u> increase in cost per unit manufactured</u>. b. The y-intercept is 1500. This represents <u>the initial investment</u> into the wristbands; the company must spend a <u>fixed cost of 1500</u> to make wristbands.
