Members of the chorus are selling tubs of cookie dough to raise money. the director uses this equation to calculate the amount of profit, p, made from selling n, tubs of cookie dough. p=1.50n-500

$2416.6

step-by-step explanation:

per hour = $ 25

total work time = 35

commission = 15%

total she has to make = $ 4,500

let she sold x dollar products

so her commission will be 15 % of x

now

total = weekly basic pay + commission

4500= (25*35) + 15 % of x

4500=875 + * x

4500-875 =   * x

3625= * x

multiplying wwith 100 on both sides gives

36250 = 15 x

now

x =  

x= $2416.6

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
