Question 1062276: Need a formula showing the revenue for a given amount of clothing (in pounds), taking expenses into account.
1 dollar per pound is the price I want to charge a customer
Cost to wash .97
I want to graph out 0-60 pounds in 5 pound increments
Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
if you charge a dollar a pound and it costs you 97 cents a pound, then your profit is 3 cents a pound.

let y equal cents of profit and let x equal the pounds of wash.

your equation would be y = 3x.

when x = 5, your profit is 5 * 3 = 15 cents.

when x = 30, your profit is 30 * 3 = 90 cents.

when x = 60, your profit is 60 * 3 = 90 cents.

your minor grid lines would be every pound.

your major grid lines would be every 5 pounds.

your graph would look something like this:

$$$

the vertical grid lines on this graph are every 5 minutes.
