A company produces accessories for smart phones and tablets. The profit on each smart phone case is $2, and the profit on each tablet case is $3. The company made a profit of $1,200 on the cases last month. The equation 2x + 3y = 1,200 represents the company's profit from cases last month, where x is the number of smart phone cases sold and y is the number of tablet cases sold. Suppose in the next month, the total profit on smart phone cases and tablet cases is $1,500. The profit amounts are the same, $2 for smart phone case and $3 for the tablet case. In a paragraph of at least three sent

@math&ing001 its yololifelove I forgot my password :P

OpenStudy (math&ing001):

Hey there =) Thee question is not complete " In a paragraph of at least three sent...

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

oh sorry In a paragraph of at least three sentences, explain how the graphs of the functions for the two months are the same and how they are different. Be sure to use complete sentences

OpenStudy (math&ing001):

Well the both the graphs are gonna have the same slope but different y-intercepts. See : https://www.desmos.com/calculator/biyb8af3tp

@Sparklestaraa

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

so i should write about that

OpenStudy (math&ing001):

Yes, you're asked to compare the two graphs. First you say they're not the same then you explain the difference.

OpenStudy (sparklestaraa):

What is really the difference ;( i didn't understand really much at all about this

OpenStudy (math&ing001):

The difference is in the y-intercept, you can see it on the graphs i posted. 2x + 3y = 1200 is transformed to y = -2/3 x + 400 (this is the slope intercept form) |dw:1419810375304:dw|
