A company produces boxes of dvds of a rate at 52 boxes per hour. they begin to produce boxes when they first open for the day and after 3 hours they have 404 boxes in stock.

How many boxes are in stock when they open?

Write a linear model for the amount of boxes b, of a function of the number of hours since they opened, h.

What is the slope of the linear model you found above?

What is the y-intercept of the linear function you found above?

Use your model to predict the number of boxes in stock at the end of an 8 hour shift

William Christensen · Answer 1

this number 1 and 2 is the only one i could answer

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In three hours, at 52 boxes an hour, they produce 3 (52) = 156 boxes.

If they then have 404 boxes on hand, they must have had

404 - 156 = 248 boxes when the store opened.

2. N=404-3 times 52
