online sales of a particular product are related to the number of clicks in a month. it was found that 1,520 clicks results in $2,748 of online sales, and that 1,840 clicks results in $2,956 of online sales. write a linear function that models the online sales of the product based on the numbet of clicks om its advertisement. how many clicks would we need to expect $3,385 in monthly online sales from this particular product?

Respuesta :

Let x denote online sales

Let y denote the number of clicks

The coordinates are (2748,1520) (2956,1840)

slope m= [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

m= [tex]\frac{1840-1520}{2956-2748} =\frac{320}{208}[/tex]

Hence m = 1.538

y = 1.538x

Now for x= 3385

y=  1.538*3385 = 5206 clicks.

Total number of clicks needed are 5206.
