P(x) = 4x + 1550 <== ur function
selling only 50 copies...
P(50) = 4(50) + 1550
P(50) = 200 + 1550
P(50) = 1750....so the printing cost for 50 copies is 1750
1750 = 50x....x = cost of each book
1750/50 = x
35 = x.......u would have to sell each book for $ 35 <===
93% you have to divide the $120 by $12 and then multiply what you get by $12
68*x/100=48
=> 68*x=4800
=> x=4800/68
=> x~=70.58
P.S: * means multiply, ~= means approximation, / means divide
<em>If the rate is a constant, the relationship is proportional.</em> (The rate is the constant of porportionality.)
_____
For two or more points on the function curve, divide the dependent variable value by the independent one. If you get the same result in every case, the relationship is porportional.
___
<em>Note</em>
For some non-proportional relationships, it is possible to find points on the graph that will pass the above test. If you suspect the relationship is actually not one of proportionality, try more points. Check also to make sure that (0, 0) is on the curve.
The answer is D. j - 14 = 28
Basically, saying the answer aloud, you will be saying the jellybeans my mom added to the bag minus the 14 jellybeans I had previously is equal to my total of 28 jellybeans I have now.
