Answer:
$20 per sweater.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
A store buys 7 sweaters for $42 and sells them for $182.
We need to find how much profit the store make per sweater.
The amount the store bought the sweaters fr is calculated as follows :
$182- $42 = $140
Profit the store made per sweater is given by :
Hence, the store will make $20 per sweater.
y = 8
using the ' gradient formula' m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
with (x₁, y₁) = (3, 3), (x₂, y₂) = (- 5, y) and m = -
(y - 3)/( - 5 - 3) = -
(y - 3)/(-8) = -
multiply both sides by - 8 to eliminate fractions
y - 3 = 5
add 3 to both sides
y = 5 + 3 =8
