<span>Using the points (2, 45) (4, 143) and (10, 869), we can plug them into the following system of 3 equations using the y = ax^2 + bx + c format:

45 = a(2)^2 + b(2) + c
143 = a(4)^2 + b(4) + c
869 = a(10)^2 + b(10) + c

which simplifies to:

45 = 4a + 2b + c
143 = 16a + 4b + c
869 = 100a + 10b + c

Solving the system, we get a = 9, b = -5, and c = 19. Thus the equation is:

c(x) = 9x^2 - 5x + 19

If you have a TI graphing calculator, you can also enter the points by pressing Stat -> Edit and enter (2, 45) (4, 143) and (10, 869) into it. Go back and calculate the QuadReg of the points from the Calc tab and it will give you the same answer.

Now that we know the function that will produce the price of production for any number of calculators, plug in x = 7 and it will give you the price to produce 7 calculators.

c(x) = 9x^2 - 5x + 19
==> c(7) = 9(7)^2 - 5(7) + 19
==> c(7) = 441 - 35 + 19
==> c(7) = 425

Therefore, it costs $425 to produce 7 calculators.

Hope this helps.

The temperature change on the second day is greater than the temperature change on the first day.

<h3>What is temperature change?</h3>

The term temperature change refers to the difference in the temperature between the sunrise and the sunset. The temperature at sunrise and sunset are shown in the table attached to this answer.

The change in temperature on the first day is;

13.49 - (-11.31) = 24.80

The change in temperature on the second day is;

25.25 - (-7.69) = 32.94

Thus, the temperature change on the second day is greater than the temperature change on the first day.

You are in charge of the Annual Powder Puff football game. You designed a t-shirt to sell during the event. A company charges $7
vekshin1
We're looking for C(h), where h is the hundreds of shirts.  The fact that they cost "$500 for each additional 100 t-shirt" tells us the slope is 500.  Knowing that 1 hundred costs 750, we could use point-slope at this point: (C - 750)/(h - 1) = 500C - 750 = 500h - 500C(h) = 500h + 250 We can check that C(1) = 750 and C(2) = 1250, as we expect.  I'll leave it to you to evaluate C(5).
