To predict the amount of money the pharmaceutical company will spend on research and development in 2030, we need to substitute x=2030 into the function f(x)=1.851x−3369.
Therefore, using the function:
f(2030)=1.851(2030)−3369
f(2030)=3758.83-3369
f(2030)=389.83
The company will spend $389.83 billion on research and development in 2030.
A large pharmaceutical company uses the function f(x)=1.851x−3369 to model the amount of money, in billions of dollars, it spends each year on research and development, where x corresponds to the year. Use the function to predict the amount of money it will spend in 2030. Question content area bottom
