- For the following exercises, consider this scenario: The profit of a company increased steadily over a ten-year span. Thefollowing ordered pairs show the number of units sold in hundreds and the profit in thousands of over the ten-yearspan, (number of units sold, profit) for specific recorded years: (46,250),(48,305),(50,350),(52,390),(54,410). Predict when the profit will exceed one milliondollars.arrow_forwardFor the following exercises, consider this scenario: The profit of a company increased steadily over a ten-year span.
