Complete question :
The cost of a student ticket to the school play is $7. Write an equation that correctly relates the total cost, c, for a particular number, s, of student tickets purchased. Identify the independent and dependent variable.
Answer:
Dependent variable = Total cost
Independent variable = number of students
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost equation is :
Total cost, c = cost per ticket * number of tickets
c = 7 * s
c = 7s
The Independent variable also called the predictor variable is the number of students in the scenario described above as it is the variable upon which the total cost relies. It dictates the value of the output or dependent variable. As we vary the value of the Independent variable, number of students, the total cost which is the dependent variable also varies. The dependent variable on the other hand is the predicted value or variable which is controlled by the independent variable. The dependent variable in this case is the total cost, c
The first thing you would do is substitute the 10 in for 'w' and 535 in for 'c'.
535 = 235 + 30(10)
535 = 185 + 35(10)
Then, you would just solve the equations.
535 = 235 + 30(10)
30(10) = 300
300 + 235 = 535
So the first equation is true, and we know for a fact that Larry's Landscaping charges $535 for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance for 10 weeks.
On to the next equation.
535 = 185 + 35(10)
35(10) = 350
185 + 350 = 535
So, the second equation is true also. And we also know for a fact that Joe's Landscaping charges $535 for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance for 10 weeks.
So, now that we know that they will end up charging the same amount of money for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance, the only answer that fits that is C. The cost for lawn maintenance is the same, $535, for both landscaping companies after 10 weeks.
Hope this helps!
The five men would be paid $10.41 each at the same hourly rate
I’m pretty sure the answer is 127.48 ,but I could be wrong.
You just need to factor a to get
