The amount a hardware store pays for buying nylon rope is represented by the equation y = 0.08x, where 'y' is the price it pays for 'x' feet of rope. The amount the hardware store charges for selling the rope is represented by the graph. Part A What does the slope of the graph show about the hardware store's selling price for the rope?

0.025 $/in.

The store bought 300 ft of rope.

1 ft = 12 in.

300 ft * 12 in./ft = 3600 in.

The store bought 3600 inches of rope.

The store sells 40 inches of rope for $1.60. We can find the selling unit price of rope in dollars per inch.

($1.60)/(40 in.) = $0.04/in.

The store sells the rope at a price of $0.04 per inch.

The store sold all the rope at $0.04/in.

3600 in. * $0.04/in. = $144

The store sold all the rope for $144.

The profit was $54 for selling ll the rope.

$144 - $54 = $90

The bought the rope for $90.

The cost is dollars per inch is

($90)/(3600 in.) = 0.025 $/in.
