Question

A computer manufacturer built a new facility for assembling computers. There were construction and new equipment costs. The company paid for these costs and made combined profits of $40 million after 4 years while profits increased $30 million per year. Select the correct graph of this function.

There is a graph of a line that has a y intercept that is approximately $80 million and passes through the point of approximately x = 2 years and y = $140 million.

Answer 1

There is a graph of a line that has a y intercept that is approximately negative $80 million and an x intercept that is approximately 2.7 years.

There is a graph of a line that has a y intercept that is approximately negative $45 million and an x intercept that is approximately 2 years.

There is a graph of a line that has a y intercept that is approximately negative $45 million and an x intercept that is approximately 0.6 years.

Answer 2

looks u did this before :o

Answer 3

it's a little different

Answer 4

Yeah i see

Answer 5

how did you find the two points in the last one?

Answer 6

we dint find two points in last one

Answer 7

we're given a point
and slope

Answer 8

read the problem and make a guess
wats the point ?
whats the slope ?

Answer 9

point (4, 40)

Answer 10

slope 30?

Answer 11

Correct !
write the equation and find x,y intercepts

Answer 12

y=30x+b
40=30*4+b
40=120+b
-80=b

Answer 13

y=30x-80

Answer 14

0=30x-80
80=30x
2.7=x

Answer 15

so b?

Answer 16

Yes ! good job !!
