Anewspaper started an online version of its paper 14 years ago. in a recent presentation to stockholders, the lead marketing executive states that the revenues for online ads have more than doubled that of the revenues for printed ads since starting the online version of the paper. use the graph below to justify the lead executive’s statement and to determine the approximate year that the two ad revenues were equal.

The lead executive's statement is true and the approximate year where the revenues were equal was the 7th year (around the second half of it)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-axis of the graph represents the years while the y-axis represents the revenues in millions of dollars.

a) Looking at the graphic, specifically the 14 year, we can see that the revenues for printed ads are below the 2 million dollars, while the revenues for online ads are above the 4 million dollars. Therefore, the lead executive statement is true since 4 million dollars is more than double than the less than 2 million dollars from printed ads.

b) On the other hand, we can determine when the 2 revenues were equal by taking a look at where both of the lines cross. We can see that this happens between years 6 and 8, more specifically closer to the 8th year, so we can conclude that the revenues were equal around the 7th year.
