Question 611940
Suppose a market research company finds that at a price of p = $50, they would sell x = 60 tiles each month. If they lower the price to p = $45, then more people would purchase the tile, and they can expect to sell x = 75 tiles in a month's time. Find the equation of the line using p = mx+b 
------------------
You have 2 points: (60,50) and (75,45)
---
Slope = (45-50)/(75-60) = -5/15 = -1/3
-------
p = mx + b
Solve for "b":
50 = (-1/3)60 + b
30 = b
-----
Equation:
p = (-1/3)x + 30
