I'm pretty sure you already solved this by now, but I'll say the answer anyway. This problem has already been solved by another as a verified answer.

This is the concept of financial algebra, we are required to calculate the value of stock ABC which follows the model given by:

y=12.21x+37.42

given that x=62 days,

the value of th estock after 62 days will be given by:

y=12.21 (62) + 37.42

y=757.02+37.42

y=794.44

ABC will be worth $794.44
