Acompany’s profits (p) are related to increases in a worker’s average pay (x) by a linear equation. if the company’s profits drop by $1,500 per month for every increase of $450 per year in the worker’s average pay, what is the slope of the graph of the equation? pls write the answer on a graph hurry pls -sophia g

company’s profits (P) are related to increases in a worker’s average pay (x) by a linear equation.

We can write this expression in the form of linear equation as

   p=K x + C where C is y-intercept.

For C=0, the equation reduces to

p = K x

The company’s profits drop by $1,500 per month for every increase of $450 per year in the worker’s average pay.

Company's loss after a year=$1500 × 12 =$18,000

p = K x

(x, p) = (450, -18,000) So we will take

⇒-18,000=450 K  

⇒-18,000=450 K

⇒K= -18,000/450

slope of the graph of the equation= -18,000/450

           = -1800/45

    K    = -200/9

The equation becomes y=

Our required slope is -0.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Profit is dropped by $1500.

so, amount of profit = (-)$1500

Worker's average pay is increased by $450.

Amount of average pay = (+)450

So, the slope of the graph of the equation would be

Hence, our required slope is -0.3.

this is a tricky question, lol,   but i think the answer is 100,000.
