Question

On average, Matt's Manufacturing Company produces 130 units in five working days and 650 units in twenty-five working days. In a linear model of this situation, which of the following statements applies?

Answer 1

Answer: Additional day is associated with a production of 26 units

Steps:

130 units ---- 5 days

650units ---- 25 days

which shows this is a linear relationship (130 units x 5 = 650 units)

So we can divide the increase (650-130) = 520 by 20 days to get the increase per 1 day: 520 units /20 days = 26 units/day
