Enrique predicts that he can make additional money from sales of accessories and services for computer products sold by his store. The table at the right shows predicted percent returns for such sales. For example, if the store makes x dollars selling computer products, Enrique predicts the store will make 0.05x dollars from selling accessories. Part A In January and February of this year, the store made $2,500 from sales of accessories and services. Let x represent the amount the store will make from sales of computer products from March through December. Write an equation that represents the predicted amount y that the store will make from sales of accessories and services for the entire year. If Enrique predicts sales from accessories and services for the entire year will be $5,000, about how much money must be made from computer product sales from March through December? Explain.

x was its full computer product revenue from March to December. In january and february, the revenue towards products and services before x quantities for computer product revenues will happen between March to December is $2,500.

Whenever x quantity is sold, then 0.05x quantity was sold for supplies and equipment.

The sum of accessories to sell should be calculated, indeed, year-round.

It helps us to split into two parts

y = accessory sales in January and February + accessories sales in March and December

Use item 2

y = $2,500 + March to December accessories sale

Now use sections 1 and 3

y = $2,500 + 0.05x

The above equation rewriting gives

y = 0.05x + $2,500 (a)

This formula is compared with a standard y = mx+c interrupt slope

We got a pitch of 0.05 and a pitch of $2,500.
