Question

) A computer program found that the line LaTeX: c=2t-89c = 2 t − 89 is a good fit for the data. Use this equation to predict how many cups of lemonade Lin might sell on a day when the high temperature is 74 degrees. We predict she will sell 40 cups of lemonade.

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of cups of lemonade = 59 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear function :

C = 2t - 89

At temperature of 74° ;

The cups of lemonade as calculated using the linear model:

C = 2t - 89 ; where c = cost of lemonade ; t = temperature.

C = 2(74) - 89

C = 148 - 89

C = 59
