Graph and Interpret Applications of Slope–Intercept
Katherine is a private chef. The equation models the relation between her weekly cost, C , in dollars and the number of meals, m , that she serves.
Marjorie teaches piano. The equation models the relation between her weekly profit, P , in dollars and the number of student lessons, s , that she teaches.
ⓐ −$250
ⓑ $450
ⓒ The slope, 35, means that Marjorie’s weekly profit,
P , increases by $35 for each additional student lesson she teaches. The
P –intercept means that when the number of lessons is 0, Marjorie loses $250.
