MONEY PRIZE FOR THE FIRST PERSON TO GET THIS RIGHT AT THE END OF THE PROBLEM LIST METHOD OF ONLINE PAYMENT YOU WANT!
Situation: You love to knit sweaters and you want to start a small business to make money from your talent. You want to do the math first to find out how long it will take for you to make a profit. You must pay a fixed fee of $90.00 to start the company up plus $15.00 for each sweater to pay for the yarn. You want to charge $30.00 for each sweater that you sell.

1. Write an equation for the cost of the company
Choose and define your variables in words:
x:
Equation: y:

2. Write an equation for the money made, INCOME (NOT PROFIT ALL INCOME), selling sweaters
Choose and define your variables in words:
x:
Equation: y:

After you have your equations:
-Find the cost and income when you sell 2 sweaters. (You should have two different answers because you had two different equations one for the INCOME and one for the COST!)

Hints: REMEMBER X is your independent variable so look at the independent number or thing about the problem and write it for x: . Also REMEMBER Y is your dependent variable so whatever your x is y will depend on it if X changes Y also changes look at the problem and ask yourself "What has an effect on what? and "What is effected by what?" This will help you answer the problem.

Answer:

1. y = 90x

x: the amount of companies to start

y: The total amount it will cost.

2. y = 30x

y: the total income

x: the amount of sweaters being sold.

The answer to the last question(I think would be):

cost:  $30

income: $60

as:

equation to find cost = y = -15x

equation to find income = y = 30x
