Dalton spent $165 on supplies to make cupcakes for a bake sale. He plans to sell the cupcakes for $3.50 each. Dalton then spends an additional $50 on supplies and decreases the sales price of each cupcake by $0.75. Which equation can be used to find the profit P, when he sells x cupcakes?​

the answer is 37

step-by-step explanation:

the slope of the line is 60

one point on the line is (40,10)

step-by-step explanation:

in the equation outside the parenthesis the equation always tells you the slope. in this case it is 60.

in the parenthesis is also says 40 which is x because it is near the x and 10 is y because it is near y.

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
