A light bulb company produces a constant number of new light bulbs in their factory each week. The company stores the bulbs in a warehouse where old light bulbs from the previous year are also stored. After 2 weeks, the company has 5,000 bulbs in the warehouse. After 7 weeks, the company has 8,500 bulbs in the warehouse.
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Note: You have 2 points:: (2,5000) and (7,8500)
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "A: What is the constant rate of change in this problem?
\n" ); document.write( "slope = (8500-5000)/(7-2) = 3500/5 = 700
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "B: Which equations correctly model the number of bulbs in the warehouse as a function of the number of weeks?
\n" ); document.write( "y-8500 = 700(x-7)
\n" ); document.write( "y-5000 = 700(x-2)
\n" ); document.write( "------------
