Respuesta :

The scatter plot below shows the sales (in multiples of $1000) for the company over time (in months). The equation represents the linear model for this data. y = 0.94x + 12.5 
so the company's sale after 40 moenth isy = 0.94(40) + 12.5 y = 50.1 x 1000y = $ 50,100 is their sale after 40 months

After 40 months company's sales by $51,000.

Given

The equation represents the linear model for this data.

y = 0.94x + 12.5

Linear equation;

The standard form represents the linear equation.

[tex]\rm y = mx +c[/tex]

Where m is the slope of the equation and c is the intercept.

Then,

The company's sales are after 40 months is given by;

[tex]\rm y = 0.94x + 12.5\\\\x=40\\\\y=0.94(40)+12.5\\\\y=37.6+12.5\\\\y=50.1[/tex]

Therefore,

The scatter plot below shows the sales (in multiples of $1000) for the company over time (in months).

[tex]\rm Sales = 1000\times 50.1\\\\Sales=50,100[/tex]

Hence, the company's sales are after 40 months are $51,000.
