The accountant for College Sound Company has analyzed sales and discovered that if the selling price of one speaker is $225, then they will sell 260 units per month. However, if the selling price is $270 then they will sell 240 units per month. Assume that the equation relating the number of units sold, y and the price per unit, p, is linear. Find an equation for y in terms of p.
A. Writing Assignments: Students must work on assigned mathematical problems requiring the manipulation of abstract symbols. B. Appropriate Outside Assignments: Students will be expected to spend a sufficient amount of time outside of class to practice techniques taught during class time, read assigned materials, and complete homework assignments. C. Appropriate Assignments that Demonstrate Critical Thinking: Students must demonstrate mathematical skills such as equation solving and graphing which involve analyzing information, recognizing concepts in new contexts, and drawing analogies. Critical thinking will also be emphasized through numerous treatments of word problems.
