Question

I Need some help on this assignment Also the second half to the problem how much will be spent on the job from the 10 to 20th day

Answer 1

Explanation

$f(x)=4.1x+1.9$

where x is the number of days since the start of the job

and f(x) is the rate of change

Step 1

a)find the total expenditure if the job takes 12 days

so, as x represents the number of days, just replace and calculate

let x= 12

$\begin{gathered} f(x)=4.1x+1.9 \\ f(12)=4.1(12)+1.9 \\ f(12)=49.2+1.9 \\ f(12)=51.1 \end{gathered}$

so

a) 51.1

Step 2

now, let's find the total spent on the job from the 10 to 20th day

a) find the x value ( number of days since the job started)

x= 20 days-10dys= 10

so

x= 10
