Question

A computer company created this graph to show how many computers it expects sell based on how much money you spend on internet advertising. The company expects

sell 40 million computers, spending $5 million on Internet advertising. What set of units and scales are appropriate for the two axes?

Answer 1

Horizontal axis will have number of computers in millions and vertical axis will have advertising dollars in millions.

Given information:

The graph of computer production and advertising amount spent is given in the question.

Total number of computer sell = 40 millions

Cost of internet advertising = $5 million

Now , by looking the graph one can conclude that, Y coordinate of the graph is 40 million and the X coordinate of the graph is $5 million.

Hence, from the above conclusion one can write as:

Horizontal axis (X-axis) is the number of computers and the Vertical axis is (Y-axis) the advertising cost of computers.
