Given that the graph shows P as a function of n, we have:

a. The more hot dogs that is sold, his profit increases.

b. Jimmy sells the hot dog for $1 each.

c. Jimmy needs to sell 16 hot dogs to recover the $8 he invested.

d. He would make a profit of $7.

e. The number of hot dogs he needs to sell is: 20.

<h3>What is a Linear Function?</h3>

A linear  function is expressed as, y = mx + b, where y is a function of x, m is the unit rate, and b is the starting value or initial value of the function.

We are given that profit, P, is a function of the number of hot dogs sold, n.

a. The graph of the function slopes upwards, so this means that the more hot dogs that is sold, his profit increases.

b. Cost of 1 hot dog = Unit rate = change in y / change in x = 2 units/2 units

Cost of 1 hot dog = Unit rate = 1

Thus, Jimmy sells the hot dog for $1 each.

c. If you trace profit (P) on the graph when it is $8, the corresponding number of hot dogs, n, would be 16.

So, Jimmy needs to sell 16 hot dogs to recover the $8 he invested.

d. When n = 15, P, from the graph would be 7.

Thus, if Jimmy sells 15 hot dogs, he would make a profit of $7.

e. When P = 12, from the graph, the corresponding n value is 20.

Therefore for Jimmy to make $12, the number of hot dogs he needs to sell is: 20.

(Q2) Which of the following points lies on the graph of the function y = 4x ?
stepladder [879]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

I think I will answer the question the your attachment because it has full information.

The function is: y = 3*2^{x}

a. The function decreases

Wrong, because the base number is 2 and it is greater than 0. The function will go up

b. y=intercept of  (0.2)

Wrong, Let substitute x =2 into the function: y = 3*2^{2} = 12  

c. if x increase by 1, the value of y will double

Because the base number is 2. For example:

  • If x = 2, y = 3*2^{2}  = 12
  • If x =3, y =3*2^{3} =(3*2^{2}*)2  = 24

d. contains the point (2,4)

Wrong, Let substitute x =4 into the function: y = 3*2^{4} = 48

So we choose C
