Question

A toy company currently produces 950 toys per day. The company plans to increase the number of toys produced per day by 55 each year. If the company follows through on this plan, how many toys will it be producing per day in 7 years?

Answer 1

Answer:

1335 toys per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of toys produced per day can be modeled by the following function:

$N(t) = N(0) + at$

In which N(0) is the current number and a is the increase.

A toy company currently produces 950 toys per day. The company plans to increase the number of toys produced per day by 55 each year.

This means that $N(0) = 950, a = 55$

So

$N(t) = N(0) + at$

$N(t) = 950 + 55t$

If the company follows through on this plan, how many toys will it be producing per day in 7 years?

This is N(7).

$N(t) = 950 + 55t$

$N(7) = 950 + 55*7 = 1335$

1335 toys per day.
