@wio

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

this is a linear equation problem. Essentially you assume that Print o Rama's fee is a function in the form y=mx+b, where x is the total number of shirts, m is the cost per shirt, b is the set up fee, and y is the total cost

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

so you want to find the total cost if the number of shirts is zero (the set up fee) ... what you want to do is calculate the slope and extrapolate backwards

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

So would the equation be: 95=9.5(10)+b

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

no

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

True it wouldn't make sense because b=0

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

erm the first column is your x values and the second column is your y values

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

so you have two points, one being (10, 95) and the other being (30,375) and you want to determine the y intercept of the equation of the line that passes through
