7/10 is equivalent to 3.5/5 is one
Point-slope form of a line: We need a point (x₀,y₀) and the slope "m";
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
We have the next equation of line:
y=1/2 x-2 (slope-intercept form y=mx+b)
the slope of this line is 1/2 (m=1/2)
And any one point could be:
if x=0; then y=1/2 (0)-2=-2 (0,-2)
Therefore, we already have the point (0-,2) and the slope (m=1/2)
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y+2=1/2(x-0)
Answer: the point slope form of y=1/2 x-2; would be:
y+2=1/2(x-0)
Assume that 100% = 45 sales and 35% = X sales amount
You can create a ratio to help you solve for x
45 = 100%
x = 35 %
Which is equal to this fraction: (45/x) = (100/35)
Solving for X by cross multiplying and dividing by 100:
[(45)(35)] / 100 = X = 15.75 = 16 sales (rounded up)
You would need at least 16 sales to increase sales total by 35%
