A company is planning to set up a new manufacturing plant for giant inflatable beach balls and believe the costs follow a linear

model. The cost analysts estimate the cost of producing 10,000 beach balls to be $587,500 and the cost of producing 50,000 beach balls to be $717,500

The cost(y) of producing x number of balls is given by the linear model y = 3.25x + 685000

Linear equation

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the rate of change (slope) and b is the y intercept.

Let y represent the cost of producing x number of beach balls.

Using the point (10000, 587500) and (50000, 717500):

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-717500=\frac{717500-587500}{50000-10000} (x-10000)\\\\y=3.25x+685000

The cost(y) of producing x number of balls is given by the linear model y = 3.25x + 685000

Zoe has 5 pounds of potatos she has multiple recipes that require 3/4 pound of potatoes how many recipes will she be able to mak
Natali [406]
Amount of potatoes that Zoe has = 5 pounds
Quantity of potatoes that Zoe need for each recipe = 5/(3/4) 
                                                                                 = 5 * (4/3) 
                                                                                 = 20/3 
                                                                                 = 6 2/3 
From the above deduction, we can conclude that only 6 recipes can be made. The remaining amount of 2/3 will remain unused. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
