A manager is assessing the correlation between the number of employees in a plant and the number of products produced yearly. The table shows the data: Number of employees
(x) 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400
Number of products
(y) 100 1,100 2,100 3,100 4,100 5,100 6,100 7,100 8,100
What does the slope and y-intercept of the plot indicate?

5000 ;

11125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Total principal = 16125

Rates = 8.5% and 4%

Period, t = 2 years

Total interest = 1740

Let :

Principal amount invested at 8.5% = x

Principal amount invested at 4% = 16125 - x

Interest formula :

Interest = principal * rate * time

Hence, mathematically ;

(x * 8.5% * 2) + [(16125 - x) * 4% * 2] = 1740

(0.17x + 1290 - 0.08x ) = 1740

0.09x + 1290 = 1740

0.09x = 1740 - 1290

0.09x = 450

x = 450 / 0.09

x = 5000

Amount invested at 4% :

16125 - 5000 = 11125
