The slope is of $13, which means that each new sign costs $13.

-----------------

A linear function has the following format:

y = mx + b

In which

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept.

-----------------

  • In the linear function in this problem, we have two points (x,y): (5,72) and (15,202).
  • The slope is given by the <u>change in y divided by the change in x</u>, thus:

m = \frac{202 - 72}{15 - 5} = 13

  • The slope is of $13, which means that each new sign costs $13.

Jessica is organizing a guided tour of the rain forest. The average profit per person that the touring company makes is given by
Allushta [10]

As a practical equation, this one doesn't make much sense -- why would the profit per person have a term proportional to the number of people?  Let's just go with it.

18x + \dfrac{35}{x}

= \dfrac{18x^2}{x} + \dfrac{35}{x}

= \dfrac{18x^2 + 35}{x}

That's the answer to the first part.

35/x represents a portion of the profit that's 35/x per person, or a constant $35 per tour.
