Find a linear equation to model this real-world application:

it costs abc electronics company $2.50 per unit to produce a part used in a popular brand of desktop computers. the company has monthly operating expenses of $350 for utilities and $3300 for salaries. write the linear equation to model the company's monthly expenses in the form of y=mx+b.

do not include commas in your answer.

The linear equation to model the company's monthly expenses is y = 2.5x + 3650

Solution:

Let "x" be the units produced in a month

It costs ABC electronics company $2.50 per unit to produce a part used in a popular brand of desktop computers.

Cost per unit = $ 2.50

The company has monthly operating expenses of $350 for utilities and $3300 for salaries

We have to write the linear equation

The linear equation to model the company's monthly expenses in the form of:

y = mx + b

Cost per unit = $ 2.50

Monthly Expenses = $ 350 for utilities and $ 3300 for salaries

Let "y" be the total monthly expenses per month

Then,

Total expenses = Cost per unit(number of units) + Monthly Expenses

Thus the linear equation to model the company's monthly expenses is y = 2.5x + 3650

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.

the ratios are reciprocals im positive

step-by-step explanation:

they are all positive numbers so it wouldn't be the other ones
