A restaurant served 25,000 customers in 2012. In 2014, the restaurant served 26,600 customers. Write a linear model that represe

nts the number y of customers that the restaurant serves x years after 2012. Use the model to predict the number of customers that the restaurant will serve in 2020.

Answer:

y = 800x + 25 000; 31 400 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear model has the form y = mx + b

There are two variables: the <em>number of customers</em> and the <em>number of years since 2012</em>. The number of customers depends on how long the restaurant has been operating.

m = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂ -x₁)

x₁ = 2012 – 2012 = 0; y₁ = 25 000

x₂ = 2014 – 2012 = 2; y₂ = 26 600

m = (26 600 – 25 000)/(2 - 0)

m = 1600/2

m = 800 customers/yr

The initial value (b) is the number of customers in 2012.

b = 25 000  

The linear function is

y = 800x + 25 000

===============

<em>Customers in 2020 </em>

x = 2020 -2012

x = 8                             Insert into the formula

y = 800×8 + 25 000

y = 6400 + 25 000

y = 31 400 customers

The restaurant will serve 31 400 customers in 2020.

In golf, a score of 0 is called even par. A score of 2 under par is written as -2. A score of 4 over par is written as +4 or 4.
patriot [66]

6 under par is written as -6

2 over par is written as 2

even par is written as 0

even par is written as 0


Total score: add all the numbers together:

-6 + 2 + 0 + 0 = -4  ( 4 under par).

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (-4,17/8) and a directrix of y=15/8
Temka [501]
So hmm notice the graph below

based on where the focus point is at, and the directrix, then, the parabola is opening upwards, meaning the squared variable is the "x"

\bf \begin{array}{llll}&#10;(y-{{ k}})^2=4{{ p}}(x-{{ h}}) \\\\&#10;\boxed{(x-{{ h}})^2=4{{ p}}(y-{{ k}})}\\&#10;\end{array}&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\&#10;{{ p}}=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\&#10;\qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}&#10;\end{array}

now, keep in mind, the vertex is at coordinates h,k
the vertex itself is half-way between the focus and directrix
the directrix is at y=15/8 and the focus is at y=17/8
so, half-way will then be \bf \cfrac{17}{8}-\cfrac{15}{8}=\cfrac{2}{8}\iff \cfrac{1}{4}

well, so is 1/4 between the focus point and the directrix, half of that is 1/8
so, if you move from the focus point 1/8 down, you'll get the y-coordinate for the vertex, or 1/8 up from the directrix, since the vertex is equidistant to either

what's the "p" distance? well, we just found it, is just 1/8

so, the x-coordinate is obviously -4, get the y-coordinate by 17/8 - 1/8   or 15/8 + 1/8

and plug your values (x-h)² = 4p(y-k)   and then solve for "y", that's the equation of the quadratic
