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?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If x=0 corresponds to 1980, than x=40 corresponds to 2020. If you plug in x=40 into you get 1.425. Therefore, the cost for an ad will not reach $4 million in 2020 and the price will be $1,425,000. A graph of it is
