A local cinema found that if the price of admission was $17the attendance was about 1900 customers per weekWhen the price of admission was dropped to $9. Attendance increased to about 3050 per week. Write a equation for the attendance in terms of the price. P i (A=mp+b )

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

f(A)= -143.75p + 4343.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let price be x, and attendance, y

According to the given data,

admission was $17 the attendance was about 1900 customers

admission was $9 the attendance was about 3050 customers

Therefore, the points in terms of e and y coordinates would be , (17, 1900) --> (x1,y1)

 & (9, 3050)---->(x2,y2)

Next is to calculate slope of linear equation i.e

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(3050-1900)/(9-17)

m= -143.75

Now in order to find the equation, we use point-slope

y-y1= m (x-x1)

considering the coordinates (17, 1900) and slope -143.75

Equation becomes

y-1900 = -143.75( x- 17)

y-1900= -143.75x + 2443.75

y= -143.75x + 4343.75

or can be written as,

f(A)= -143.75p + 4343.75

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, A local cinema found that if the price of admission was $17the attendance was about 1900 customers per weekWhen the price of admission was dropped to $9. Attendance increased to about 3050 per week. Write a equation for the attendance in terms of the price. P i (A=mp+b )

Let price be a,and attendance, b

Attendance: 1,900 customers, when PRICE = $17

Attendance: 3,050 customers, when PRICE = $9

We then get the points,

(17, 1,900) & (9, 3,050)

Slope of linear equation,

(17,1900) (9, 3050)

find the slope m

(3050-1900)/(9 - 17)

1150/-8

-143.75=m

A=mp+b

A=-143.75p+b

using Attendance as a function of ticket price.

A(p) = mp + b

We have two points (p, A): (17, 1900), (9, 3050)

Slope: m = (2800-1500)/(7-17) = 1300/-10 = -130

A = -130p + b

Using (17, 1900) as (p, A) find b

1900 = -143.75(17) + b

1900 = -2443.75 + b

4343.75 = b

A = -143.75p + 4343.75

Multiplies to -2 adds to 6

Answers

xy=-2

minnus x from second equation
y=6-x
sub for y
x(6-x)=-2
6x-x^2=-2
add x^2 both sides and minus 6x both sides
0=x^2-6x-2
use quadatic formula

if you have
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^(2)-4ac} }{2a}


x^2-6x-2=0
a=1
b=-6
c=-2
x=\frac{-(-6)+/- \sqrt{(-6)^(2)-4(1)(-2)} }{2(1)}
x=(6+/- √(36+8) )/(2)
x=(6+/- √(44) )/(2)
x=(6+/- 2√(11) )/(2)
x=3+/- √(11)

x=3+ √(11) or x=3- √(11)

Nan rode the roller coaster 8 times which was twice as many times as she rode the ferris wheel

Answers

I'm assuming that you're looking for the number of times Nan rode the Ferris Wheel.  The question says that 8 times is twice as many times as the Ferris Wheel, so you would divide 8 by 2 to get 4.  Nan rode the Ferris Wheel 4 times.

12, 6, 7, 11, 11, 9, 13, 16, 10. What is the interquartile range of the data set?

Answers

first put the numbers in order
6,7,9,10,11,11,12,13,16

Q1 = (7 + 9) / 2 = 16/2 = 8
Q2 (median) = 11
Q3 = (12 + 13) / 2 = 25/2 = 12.50

Interquartile range (IQR) = Q3 - Q1 = 12.50 - 8.00 = 4.5

25d-16=4d+26
whats d?

Answers

Like terms are when the variable you have are the same. In this case it is x. Therefore, when you have like terms, you should add, or subtract your like terms.

(note: When you move one thing to the other side of the equation, make sure to do the opposite of the sign. i.e. if it is +26 when you move to the other side it will be -26).

25d-16=4d+26
25d-16+16=4d+26+16
25d=4d+26+16
25d-4d=4d-4d+26+16
25d-4d=26+16
21d=42
this is the same as:
21*d=42
the opposite of multiply is divide so when we move the 21 it has to be divide
21/21*d=42/21
d=2
For this question you should first add -4d on both sides of the equation and then add +16 on both sides:
25d - 4d = 26+16 
21d = 42 
d = 42/21 
d = 2 :)))
