Question

each of the following is the slpoe of a line representing daily revenue y in terms of time x in days. Use the slope to interpret any change in daily revenue for a one-day increase in time.
a. m=400
b. m=100
c. m=0

ash2326 · Answer

$$\text{slope}=\frac{\text{change in y}}{\text{change in x}}$$
here change in x= 1 day
m= slope
I'll solve the first one for you:)
m=400
$$400=\frac{\text{change in y}}{1}$$
change in y= 400 x 1=400
do you get this?

ash2326 · Answer

change in y= change in revenue
