Answer:

[tex]p=12d+40[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a linear relationship problem modeled as:

[tex]y=mx+c[/tex]

where:

  • [tex]y[/tex] is the quantity at variable x
  • [tex]m[/tex] is the slope
  • [tex]c[/tex] is the constant of increment or decrement.
  • [tex]x[/tex] is the variation variable.

Given the constant 40, and 12 pages per day as the rate of change we substitute our variables in the form of the formula above as:

[tex]p=12d+40[/tex]
