Carly is analyzing a relationship between the profit she makes and the number of candles she sells at her local shop. when she sells 2 candles, her profit is $3.00. when she sells 4 candles, her profit is $6.00. she records this data as the points (2.3) and (4.6). what is the equation that represts the relationship between her profit and the number of candles she sells?

  profit = $1.50 × (candles sold)

Step-by-step explanation:

Doubling the number of candles sold doubles Carly's profit, so the relationship is proportional. Either data point can be used to find the profit per candle:

  $3.00/(2 candles = $6.00/(4 candles) = $1.50/candle

This is the "rate of change" in the equation we want. Multiplying this value by the number of candles sold will give the profit from the sales.

  profit = (profit per candle) × (number of candles sold)

 profit = $1.50 × (number of candles sold)

15 batches are the most you can make

step-by-step explanation:

.632

step-by-step explanation:

6 * 1/10 = 3/5

3*0.01 = 0.03

3/5 + 0.03 = .63

2*0.002 = .002

.63 + 0.002 = .632
