Question 433611: A company manufactures and sells bracelets. They have found from experience that they can sell 600 bracelets each week if the price per bracelet is $2.00, but only 500 bracelets are sold if the price is $2.50 per bracelet. If the relationship between the number of bracelets sold x and the price per bracelet p is a linear one, find a formula that gives x terms of p. Answer by rwm(914) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! This has to do with linear equations and points
Your two points are (600,2) and (500, 2.5) with x and p as the coordinates instead of x and y
So now you need to find the equation of the line knowing these two points.
