Brooke's website has two advertizing banners. A florist uses the smaller banner while a pizza store uses the larger banner. Brooke earns money every time someone clicks a banner.
She writes a description of the income earned from the florist, and draws a table to show the income earned from the pizza store. Use the description and the table to answer the question given.
Income from the florist:
On an average, 100 visitors clicked this banner every day. Over a period of five days, I earned $1125 from this banner.
Income from the pizza store:
Number of Clicks|Amount Earned (in $)
100 | 200
200 | 400
400 | 800
800 | 1600
1000 | 2000

To answer the question regarding Brooke's conclusion, let's analyze the given information.
First, let's examine the income from the florist's banner. According to the description provided, on average, 100 visitors clicked this banner every day, and over a period of five days, Brooke earned $1125 from this banner.
Now, let's analyze the table representing the income from the pizza store's banner. The table displays the number of clicks and the corresponding amount earned in dollars. From the table, we can observe that as the number of clicks increases, the amount earned also increases.
To determine whether Brooke is correct, we need to compare the earnings from 300 clicks on the two banners.
For the florist's banner:
Income per click = total income / number of clicks
Income per click = $1125 / 500 (100 clicks per day over 5 days)
Income per click = $2.25
For the pizza store's banner:
Looking at the table, we can see that for 300 clicks, the amount earned is $600.
Now, let's answer the questions based on the analysis:
1. Brooke is right because the slope of the line representing the income from the florist's banner is greater than the slope of the line representing the income from the pizza store's banner. - False
The slope of the line does not provide enough information to compare the income from the two banners. We need to compare the income per click.
2. Brooke is right because the slope of the line representing the income from the florist's banner is less than the slope of the line representing the income from the pizza store's banner. - False
As mentioned before, the slope does not provide enough information to compare the income.
3. Brooke is wrong because a click on the florist's banner gives less money than a click on the pizza store's banner. - False
The income per click for the florist's banner is $2.25, whereas the income per click for the pizza store's banner is $2.00. Thus, a click on the florist's banner gives more money than a click on the pizza store's banner.
4. Brooke is right because a click on the florist's banner gives more money than a click on the pizza store's banner. - True
As mentioned before, the income per click for the florist's banner is $2.25, whereas the income per click for the pizza store's banner is $2.00. Thus, a click on the florist's banner gives more money than a click on the pizza store's banner.
Therefore, the correct answers are:
1. False
2. False
3. False
4. True
