Answer 1

Hi, welcome to OpenStudy! This looks like a Math question? You'd probably get better help there. :-) http://openstudy.com/study#/groups/Mathematics

Answer 2

So at X = 0 (X being time in hours), Y = 7,500
At X = 6.5, Y = 15,000 (doubles)
At X = 4, Y = ?

I would first find how much it grows an hour by finding the slope. After that, it should be easy from there on
