Suppose there is a linear equation relationship between price and demand for an object. Demand for a video game is 1500 units when the price is 50 and 3000 units when the price is 20. A) Let x be the price and y be the demand for the game. Use the graph to graph the two ordered pairs of prices and demand.

@FibonacciChick666 Can help me with this problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know how to solve problem like this?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

so, if x is the price, what is your first x value?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

@Bigtim10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

50

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

ok, so what is the corresponding y value for the demand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1500

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

ok so what is your first ordered pair?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(50,1500)

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

ok, so can you do the other point now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes but there three parts to the problem

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

ok, well you just did it, I don't understand where your problem is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Part B says: If price drops to $10, the demand is blink

Thanks for your help @FibonacciChick666

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

well, did you graph your points? Where does it fall when x=10?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am thinking 2500

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

show me your work, what was the equation of the line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The work for part B is just a scatter graph. Where you estimate where the point is?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

it shouldn't be a scatter plot, this is linear

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

connect the points graphed in part a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah my mad I said the wrong graph name

OpenStudy (anonymous):
