Respuesta :

Answer:

Option B) $940

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

[tex]y = 0.94x + 12.5[/tex]

The equation represents the company sales in thousand dollars and x is time in months.

Comparing to general form of linear equation.

[tex]y = mx + c[/tex]

Comparing, we get,

Slope, m = 0.94

y-intercept, c = 12.5

Interpretation:

Thus, the slope tells us the increase in sales of company with one unit increase in x that is it tells the increase in company's sale per month.

[tex]0.94\times 1000 = 940[/tex]

$940 is the increase in company's sale per month.
