    Consumer demand A movie studio is releasing a new DVD, and the studio estimates that
    Consumer demand A movie studio is releasing a new DVD, and the studio estimates that if the DVD is priced at $19.99, it will sell 6.68 million copies, whereas if it is priced at $15.99, it will sell 11.27 million copies. If f is a linear function that gives the number of copies sold (in millions) at a given price, what is the slope of f ? What does it represent in this context?

    Okay. I may have not made myself clear.

    I'm done first one, but I don't know the second question: "What does it represent in this context?" I don't know how to answer this question. Could you please tell me the hints.

    The slope is a rate of change. The slope is 6.68 and 11.27 in my answer.

    I think you may need to look at the chapter in your text book again.
    These type of slopes can tell you alot of things concerning consumer demand..
