- Pediatric growth charts suggest a linear relationship between age (in years) and median height (in inches) for children between 2 and 12 years of age. Two year olds have a median height of 35 inches and 12 year olds have a median height of 60inches. Generate an equation to describe height as a of age. A) H(a)= -2.5a + 30 B) H(a)= 2.5a + 35 C) H(a)= 2.5a - 30 D) H(a)= .4a - 12 E) H(a)= 2.5a + 30arrow_forwardA salespersons weekly pay “y” depends on the volume of sales. If the salesperson sells “x” units of goods, then the pay is given by the linear equation y = 6x+120. a. Graph the equation labeling the x-intercept and y-intercept. b) what is the least amount of money that the salesperson will earn? c) . Show using the linear equation above what the salesperson’s weekly pay if 40 units are sold. d) use Desmos to determine the salesperson’s weekly pay if 20 units are sold. e) use Desmos to determine how many units must be sold in order to have a weekly pay of $600.arrow_forwardA real estate agent has developed a linear model for the price of a house, P, in dollars in terms of the area, A, in square feet for the homes in a certain neighborhood. The equation is P=88,000+62.5A. What is the predicated price for a home that is 3,200 square feet? Round to the nearest dollar.arrow_forward
- Since 2009, the number of analog theater screen has been on the decline in a country. The number of analog movie screens y each year can be estimated by the equation y = - 6000x + 24,100, where x represents the number of years since 2009. a. Find the x-intercept of this equation. b. What does this x-intercept mean? c. Use part (b) to comment on your opinion of the limitations of using equations to model real data.arrow_forwardWrite an equation of the line below. 博地 K itt 口口 ロ=ロ -8-7 65 4 3 -21arrow_forwardClick the imagearrow_forward
