Answer:

$110

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for the decrease in money per desk purchased. Because the x-axis is the number of desks purchased, what we have to find is the (opposite) of the slope. The formula to represent slope can be written as:

\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}- x_{1} }

We can substitute the points given, (2, 480) and (5, 150) and simplify:

\frac{150-480}{5-2} =\frac{-330}{3} = -110

We would multiply by -1 because we are asking for the decrease, and negative increase is decrease. -1 * -110, gives us $110

Determine the intercepts of the line.
djverab [1.8K]

y = -3x +12\\\\\text{Plug x = 0 to find  y - intercept,}\\\\y = -3(0) +12 = 12\\\\\text{So, y-intercept is (0,12).}\\\\\text{Plug y=0 to find  x - intercept,}\\\\0 = -3x +12\\\\\implies -3x = -12\\\\\implies 3x = 12\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{12}{3} = 4 \\\\\\\text{So, x - intercept is (4,0).}
