with an order of 60, they make 7000
\n" ); document.write( "with an order of 100, they make 15000
\n" ); document.write( "the change in what they make is equal to 8000.
\n" ); document.write( "the change in the size of the order is equal to 40.
\n" ); document.write( "the general form of the equation is y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "m is the slope.
\n" ); document.write( "b is the y-intercept.
\n" ); document.write( "the slope is the change in what they make divided by the corresponding change in the number of orders.
\n" ); document.write( "that is equal to 8000 / 40 = 200.
\n" ); document.write( "the equation becomes y = 200 * x + b.
\n" ); document.write( "the y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is 0.
\n" ); document.write( "to find it, replace a and y with their respective corresponding values and solve for b.
\n" ); document.write( "i chose 60 orders for 7000 php.
\n" ); document.write( "equation becomes 7000 = 200 * 60 + b
\n" ); document.write( "solve for b to get:
\n" ); document.write( "b = 7000 = 200 * 60 = -5000
\n" ); document.write( "equation becomes y = 200x - 5000.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "answers to your questions are:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a. write the linear function
\n" ); document.write( "y = 200x - 5000\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "b. how many electric fans must be manufactured to guarantee an earning of Php. 45,000?
\n" ); document.write( "replace y with 45000 and solve for x.
\n" ); document.write( "45000 = 200x - 5000
\n" ); document.write( "add 5000 to both sides of the equation to get:
\n" ); document.write( "50000 = 200x.
\n" ); document.write( "solve for x to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 50000/200 = 250.
\n" ); document.write( "number of orders required to make 45000 is 250.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c. how much would the manufacturer earn if it accepted an order of 200 electric fans?
\n" ); document.write( "y = 200 * x - 5000
\n" ); document.write( "replace x with 200 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "y = 200 * 200 - 5000
\n" ); document.write( "solve for y to get:
\n" ); document.write( "y = 35000
\n" ); document.write( "order of 2100 will earn 35000.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "d. If the manufacturer has a maximum earning of Php. 75,000 what is the most number of orders of electric fans has it?
\n" ); document.write( "replace y with 75000 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "75000 = 200 * x - 5000
\n" ); document.write( "add 5000 to both sides of the equation to get:
\n" ); document.write( "80000 = 200 * x
\n" ); document.write( "solve for x to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 80000 / 200 = 400.
\n" ); document.write( "maximum number of orders would be 400.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the equation can be graphed.
\n" ); document.write( "here's what it looks like.
\n" ); document.write( "the equation graphed is y = 200x - 5000.
\n" ); document.write( "selected points are in (x,y) format.
\n" ); document.write( "x is the number of orders.
\n" ); document.write( "y is the amount earned.\r
