Question 1152568: The cost (in millions of dollars) for a 30-second ad during the TV broadcast of a major sporting event can be approximated by the rational expression ​​0.03x squared +0.345x+0.9 over x+4; where x=0 corresponds to 1980.
If this trend continues, will the cost of an ad reach $4 million by 2020 and how much will an ad cost in 2020?
