The profit a hot dog vendor earned, in dollars, is proportional to the number of hot dogs sold. this equation represents the proportional relationship between the profit earned (p) and of hot dogs (h) sold.

p=2h

enter the profit, in dollars, earned for each hot dog sold.

hurry , you!

The profit, earned for each hot dog sold is

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

p----> the profit earned

h---> the hot dogs sold

we know that

so

The slope or constant of proportionality is equal to

therefore

For

The profit is

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
