hi :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help plz lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea ill try my best :) give me a minute?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so is this a multiple choice question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no...which really sucks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright well that would have made things easier lol but do you know the equation for slope?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i used to lol but i forgot

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh yeahhhh i remember

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha yea so our points will be (37,000,5) (177,600,y) sice we dont know how long it will take to produce the number of parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so if we plug in we get: \[ \frac{y-5 }{ 177,600-37,000 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so now we solve for y... could you do that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ummm...im a bit confused actually XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where did you get (177,600,y) from?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh wait never mind XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how do we solve for y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on ill be right back i gotta do something real quick

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright im back sorry i jus realised we need unit rate haha my bad so we need to restart :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we have \[\frac{ 5 }{ 37000 }=\frac{ x }{ 177600 }\] should be easier so now we solve for x or otherwise make the equality true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we start by multiplying both sides by 177600

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you get 24=x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

awesome :D haha yes! so it would take 24 hours to produce 177600 parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yayyyyyyyyy :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha great job, took a lot of time but you did it :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol thanks so much XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha no problem, sorry again for the first error

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh..its fine :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha alright well you have a great night :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you too :p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:P
