Two models R1 and R2 are given for revenue (in millions of dollars) for a corporation. Both models are estimates of revenues from 2020 through 2025, with t = 0 corresponding to 2020. Which model projects the greater revenue? How much more total revenue does that model project over the six-year period? R1 = 7.21 + 0.26t + 0.02t2 R2 = 7.21 + 0.1t + 0.01t2
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
