Question 1085301: I need help making the table to the following question.
You and your friend can make either small bracelets that yield a profit of $10 each, or large bracelets that bring in $15 of profit each. It takes 8 minutes to design small bracelets but only 6 minutes to design the large bracelets. It also takes 8 minutes to construct a small bracelet but does take longer, 12 minutes, to construct a large bracelet. You'll be doing the design work, you only have 168 minutes to spend. Your friend will be doing the construction work, but he has only 240 minutes to spend. For this part of the assignment create a table that summarizes the information above. Your table should list both the small and large bracelet, the time needed to design and to construct each, and the maximum amount of time that can be spent on each activity. Use the variable X to represent the small bracelets and Y to represent the large bracelets.

Question 1085424: a) find the slope of the line passing through (8,-4)and (6,-2)
B) use the point slope form y-y1= m (x-x1) to find the equation of the line.
FOR A) slope I got 1
y2-y1/x2-x1
-2--4/6-8 = 2/2 which equals 1
FOR B) Y-Y1 = M (X-X1)
Y--4=1(X-8)
Y+4=1(X-8)
Y+4-4=1(X-8)-4
Y=1x-12
B) Y=1X-12
ARE MY ANSWERS CORRECT FOR A AND B???
