The linear equation for the variation of population is p = 200t + 1800.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

The formula for an equation in intercept form will be given as below:-

y = mx + c.

It is given that In 1995, the moose population in a park was measured to be 1800. By 1998, the population was measured again to be 2400.

Write the linear equation for population variation.

p = mt + c

m = Rate of change = ( 2400 - 1800 ) / 3 = 200, put the value in the equation.

p = 200t + c

Put the values in the equation to get the value of the constant.

2400 = 200 x 3 + c

c = 2400 - 600

c =1800

The equation for the linear variation of the population is,

p = 200t + 1800

Therefore, the linear equation for the variation of the population is p = 200t + 1800.

Kara used the linear model y=45,000+ 0.05x to predict her total salary from achieving total sales of x.
hoa [83]

Answer:

45,000 is the starting salary with zero sales

.05 is the amount multiplied by the number of sales that is added to her salary

For each sale we add .05 to her salary

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 45,000 +.05x

Rewriting as

y = .05x +45,000

This is in slope intercept form ( y=mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

.05 is the slope and 45,000 is the y intercept

45,000 is the starting salary with zero sales

.05 is the amount multiplied by the number of sales that is added to her salary

For each sale we add .05 to her salary
