4 days I have 140 copies of a book, 9 days I only have 50 left. Write an equation where c(t)=my+b where c is number of copies still on hand and t days being available.

.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that 4 days I have 140 copies of a book, 9 days I only have 50 left. We are asked to write an equation , where c is number of copies still on hand and t days being available.

We have two points on line (4,140) and (9,50). Now, we will use these points to find slope as:

Now, we will use point-slope form of equation and substitute and coordinates of point (9,50) as:

Therefore, our required equation would be .

48 / 6 = x

in this case, x will equal the amount of money in each card!

x therefore will be 8.

trent had $8 in each birthday card.
