Q:
Sales at a certain department store follow the model y=85-13.254x where y is the total sales in thousands of dollars and x is the number of years after 2001. What was the first year that sales fell below $50,000?
Accepted Solution
A:
50 = 85 - 13.254x...... solve for x
x = 2.64071 round up to 3
hence 2001 + 3 = 2004
