One way in which to do this problem would involve subtracting 5 from 7 (result: 2) and then subtracting 3/5 from 8/9.
To subtract 3/5 from 8/9, you'd need to find the lowest common denominator (LCD) of 3/5 and 8/9, convert both fractions to have this LCD, and then subtract.
The LCD is (5)(9)=45. Then 8/9 and 3/5 become 40/45 and 27/45.
Subtracting 27/45 from 40/45 results in the fraction 13/45.
Then the full solution is 2 13/45.
You could also do this problem by converting 7 8/9 and 5 3/5 into improper fractions:
71/9 - 28/5. Again, the LCD is 45. Can you rewrite both fractions with 45 as the common denominator and then perform the subtraction?

- Range is the set of y-values that are outputted by function f(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the graph, our line's y-values span from 2 to 14. Since both 2 and 14 are open dot, they are exclusive from the range:
Interval Notation: (2, 14)
Inequality Notation: 2 < y < 14
Answer:
Let x be the discounting price of a surfing lessons per person
Let y be the discounted price of a surfing lessons per person
The cost of taking a surfing lesson and go parasailing is $130
x + y = 130--------------(i)
25 people take
Surfing lessons, and 30 people go parasailing and a total of $3,650 is collected
25x + 30y = 3650--------------(ii)
We solve for y using equ (i):
y = 130 - x ------------(iii)
Substitute equ (iii) to equ (ii) and solve for x
25x + 30(130 - x) = 3650
25x + 390 - 30x = 3650
-5x = -250
-x = 50
We solve for y using equ (iii):
y = 130 - x
y = 130 - 50
y = 80
So, the discounted price to take a surfing lesson is $50 and the discounted price to go parasailing is $80
