Suppose you rent apartments in a large apartment complex. Currently there are 90
apartments being rented at a rent of $1300 per month. Evidence shows that for every
increase of $25 per month in rent, there will be 1 additional unit unrented.
(a) U is the number of units rented and R is the amount of rent per month, find a
linear relationship of U in terms of R.

so mainly i relly don't know so good luck
Thanks for stopping by, bob...
If the number of $25 increases is x, then
U = 90-x
R = 1300+25x
So, that means
x = 90-U
x = (R-1300)/25
Equate the two expressions and you have
90-U = (R-1300)/25
U = 90-(R-1300)/25
or
U = 142 - R/25
If the number of $25 increases is x, then
U = 90-x
R = 1300+25x
So, that means
x = 90-U
x = (R-1300)/25
Equate the two expressions and you have
90-U = (R-1300)/25
U = 90-(R-1300)/25
or
U = 142 - R/25
