Question

Lori Cook has developed the following forecasting​ model: ModifyingAbove y with caret ​= 36.0 ​+ 4.20​x, where ModifyingAbove y with caret ​= demand for Kool Air conditioners and x​ = the outside temperature​ (degrees ​Fahrenheit) ​a) When the temperature outside is 70degrees ​F, demand forecast​ = 330 330 air conditioners ​(enter your response as an​ integer). ​b) When the temperature outside is 80degrees ​F, demand forecast​ = nothing air conditioners ​(enter your response as an​ integer). ​c) When the temperature outside is 90degrees ​F, demand forecast​ = nothing air conditioners ​(enter your response as an​ integer). Enter your answer in each of the answer boxes.

Notice.

Please, what I really want to know in this question is how to put my answer in integers. Please, don't just answer the question.

Answer 1

The demand equation is: 36.0 + 4.20X

Where X is the outside temperature( degrees Fahrenheit)

a)

Outside temperature = X = 70 degrees F

So, Demand Forecast = 36.0 + ( 4.20 x 70) = 36.0 + 294.00 = 330.00 = 330 (As an integer)

b)

Outside temperature = X = 80 degrees F

So, Demand Forecast = 36.0 + ( 4.20 x 80) = 36.0 + 336.00 = 372.00 = 372 (As an integer)

c)

Outside temperature = X = 90 degrees F

So, Demand Forecast = 36.0 + ( 4.20 x 90) = 36.0 + 378.00 = 414.00 = 414 (As an integer)

" An integer is a whole number which can be positive, negative, or zero. It does not have a decimal or fractional part. For example:

2.01 is not an integer.

2 is an integer

-1 is an integer

-1.2 is not an integer

0 is an integer

0.3 is not an integer"
