13.5 – Equations of Lines Solving Problems
The pool Entertainment company learned that by pricing a pool toy at $10, local sales will reach 200 a week. Lowering the price to $9 will cause sales to rise to 250 a week. a. Assume that the relationship between sales price and number of toys sold is linear. Write an equation that describes the relationship in slope-intercept form. Use ordered pairs of the form (sales price, number sold). b. Predict the weekly sales of the toy if the price is $7.50.
