Using the trend line, what whole number could you infer the daily sales amount is when the temperature is 68 degree? Round your answer to the nearest whole number: 55 degree $24; 68 degree $45; 68 degree $55; 94 degree $80

1 answer

To estimate the daily sales amount at 68 degrees based on the trend given, we need to analyze the sales information provided. You have:

  • At 55 degrees, sales are $24.
  • At 68 degrees, sales are $45.
  • At 68 degrees (another entry), sales are $55.
  • At 94 degrees, sales are $80.

Since there are two entries for 68 degrees ($45 and $55), we can take an average or use these values as indicators for what the sales amount could be around that temperature.

To find a reasonable estimate:

  1. We take the average of the two values for 68 degrees: \[ \text{Average} = \frac{45 + 55}{2} = \frac{100}{2} = 50 \]

Thus, when rounding this average to the nearest whole number, we can infer that the daily sales amount could be around $50 at 68 degrees.
