Sal's Sandwich Shop sells wraps and sandwiches as part of its lunch specials. The profit on every sandwich is $2, and the profit on every wrap is $3. Sal made a profit of $1,470 from lunch specials last month. The equation 2x + 3y = 1,470 represents Sal's profits last month, where x is the number of sandwich lunch specials sold and y is the number of wrap lunch specials sold.

Change the equation to slope-intercept form. Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation. Be sure to show all your work.

Answer:

y = -2/3x + 490

y intercept= 490

slope = -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation to us here is ,

=> 2x + 3y = 1470

We need to , change it into slope intercept form and find out the ,

  • The Slope ( m)
  • y intercept ( c)

=> 2x + 3y = 1470

=> 3y = 1470 - 2x

=> y = 1470 - 2x/3

=> y = -2x/3 + 1470/3

=> y = -2/3 x + 490

This equation to similar to the equation in slope intercept form as ,

=> y = mx + c .

Therefore here ,

  • Slope = -2/3
  • y intercept = 490

• Hence the slope intercept form is y = -2/3x + 490 .
