Question

Transcribed Image Text:A real estate office handles an apartment complex with 60 units. When the rent per unit is $98 per month, all 60
units are occupied. However, when the rent is $630 per month, the average number of occupied units drops to
46. Assume that the relationship between the monthly rent p and the demand x is linear.
Select the equation of the line giving the demand x in terms of the rent p.
x =-38p + 62.58
X =
= 14p + 62.58
х%3 —38р — 62.58
x = 532p + 62.58
x = -
