Question

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?

Answer 1

Let x denote online sales

Let y denote the number of clicks

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

slope m=
`(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`

m=
`(1840-1520)/(2956-2748) =(320)/(208)`

Hence m = 1.538

y = 1.538x

Now for x= 3385

y= 1.538*3385 = 5206 clicks.

Total number of clicks needed are 5206.
