We can model the equation:y = m x + b, where y is the total profit and x is the number of hotdogs sold.The system of equations is:
90 = 40 m + b210 = 80 m + b---------------------b = 90 - 40 m210 = 80 m + 90 - 40 m210 - 90 = 40 m120 = 40 mm = 120 : 40m = 3b = 90 - 40*3b = 90 - 120b = - 30Answer: The equation is y = 3 x - 30
Each time the previous number is multiplied by 2
He would earn $30 for 45 minutes.
Example:
60min=$40/hr
1min =$40/$60/hr
45min=$40/$60*45
$30 for 45min
