Algebra.Com's Answer #489732 by TimothyLamb(4379) You can put this solution on YOUR website! 100 + 0.2t^2 - 0.7t = b(t) number of bicycles per week (t = weeks) \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "days 8 to 21 correspond to the full 2nd and 3rd weeks, so t=2 and t=3 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "b(2) = 100 + 0.2t^2 - 0.7t \n" ); document.write( "b(2) = 100 + 0.2(4) - 0.7(2) \n" ); document.write( "b(2) = 100 + 0.8 - 1.4 \n" ); document.write( "b(2) = 100 - 0.6 \n" ); document.write( "b(2) = 99.4 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "b(3) = 100 + 0.2t^2 - 0.7t \n" ); document.write( "b(3) = 100 + 0.2(9) - 0.7(3) \n" ); document.write( "b(3) = 100 + 1.8 - 2.1 \n" ); document.write( "b(3) = 100 - 0.3 \n" ); document.write( "b(3) = 99.7 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "b(2) + b(3) = 99.4 + 99.7 = 199.1 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Answer: \n" ); document.write( "How many bicycles were produced from day 8 to 21? \n" ); document.write( "199 bikes were produced during the 2nd and 3rd weeks \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Solve and graph linear equations: \n" ); document.write( "https://sooeet.com/math/linear-equation-solver.php \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Solve quadratic equations, quadratic formula: \n" ); document.write( "https://sooeet.com/math/quadratic-formula-solver.php \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Convert fractions, decimals, and percents: \n" ); document.write( "https://sooeet.com/math/fraction-decimal-percent.php \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Calculate and graph the linear regression of any data set: \n" ); document.write( "https://sooeet.com/math/linear-regression.php \n" ); document.write( " |
