An employee compiled sales data for a company once each month. The scatter plot below shows the sales (in multiples of $1000) fo

r the company over time (in months). The equation represents the linear model for this data.
y = 0.94x + 12.5



According to the model, what will the company's sales be after 40 months?

Answer:

$50,100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the scatter plot and the linear model, we can estimate that the total sales for the company after 40 months will be close to $50,000.  However, in order to get a more precise answer, we can solve for the total sales, 'y', based on the number of months, 'x', in the given linear model:

y = 0.94(40) + 12.5  = 37.6 + 12.5 = 50.1

Since the amount of sales is in multiples of $1000:

50.1 * 1,000 = $50,100

Janice receives $.40 per pound for 1 to 99 pounds of aluminum cans he recycles. he receives $.50 per pound if you are cycles mor
Ilya [14]

Answer:

M=\left\{\begin{matrix}0.4x &x\leq99 \\ 0.5x &x>100 \\ \end{matrix}\right.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Function modeling</u>

Real-life situations often require the help of mathematics to model numerically what happens when the variables involved can change. It could even be used to predict some expected outcomes from those models.

The problem states Janice receives $.40 per pound when he recycles less or equal than 99 pounds of aluminum. If x is the number of recycled pounds, then the amount of money he receives is

M=0.4x

We also know that if he recycles more than 100 pounds of aluminum, the pay increases to $0.5 per pound. In that case, the amount of money is

M=0.5x

This is a case where the function is defined differently depending on the conditions of the input variable x. It's called a piecewise function. The function can be written as

M=\left\{\begin{matrix}0.4x &x\leq99 \\ 0.5x &x>100 \\ \end{matrix}\right.

Note the function is not well constructed because there is a gap for x=100 where M is not defined. If we establish that for 100 pounds the payment is $0.5, then the second piece would include x=100

If you vertically compress the absolute value parent function, F(x) = |x|, by
marshall27 [118]

The current function equation is  Y=1/3|x|

---------------------------

The meaning relative f(x) = is the absolute value and is weighted by a factor 3 vertically.

If a constant (say a) multiplies the function, the parent will be extended vertically.

We have below vertical extension and compression conditions.

A > 1 = > spread vertically

0 < < 1 = > compression vertically

Therefore we will subtract the entire feature by 1/3 for vertical compression by a factor of 3.

The equation for the current function is then Y=1/3|x|

If martha is walking 9meters south and turns and walks 10meters west how far is she from her starting point?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

She is 13.45 meters from her starting point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean Theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) so 9^2+10^2=c^2. Solve it algebraically and you get c= 13.45 (rounded to nearest hundredth).
