P(1) = 37,100
P(4) = 58,400
The linear equation (for x ≥ 1)
P(x) = 37,100 + a(x-1)
For x = 4
58,400 = 37,100 + a(4-1)
58,400 - 37,100 = 3a
21300 = 3a
a = 7100
So, the linear equation:
P(x) = 37100 + 7100*(x-1)
P(x) = 37100 + 7100x - 7,100
P(x) = 7100x + 30000
To find when the profit should reach 108100, we can substitute P(x) by 108100.
108100 = 7100x + 30000
108100 - 30000 = 7100x
78100 = 7100x
x = 78100/7100
x = 11

Step-by-step explanation: First you convert the equation into standard form, which is y=mx+b . Then graph it. When it is in the form y=mx+b it is easier to graph. Then you can see the intercepts on the graph and come up with your answer.
Hope this helps!
Answer: 64.8 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Arriving time is 6 hours
return time is 4 hours
The average speed of returning 81 mph
Distance traveled while returning
the average speed of the entire trip is
Y = 1.25x + 30 <== ur function
for 3 hrs.....x = 3
y = 1.25(3) + 30
y = 3.75 + 30
y = 33.75 <=== for 3 hrs
