Considering that you are planning the trip with limited budget and only for 4 days (=96h) you must value both time and money when doing it.

If you use the bus you spend $75 + $75=$150 and 12h + 12h = 24h. This means you spend $150 to enjoy 96h - 24h = 72h of actually camping. This means you pay $150/72h = $2,08 per hour of actual camping.

On the other hand if you choose the plane you spend $150 + $ 150 = $300 and 1,5h + 1,5h = 3h. This means you spend $300 to enjoy 96h - 3h = 93h. This means you pay $300/93h = $3,22 per hour of actual camping.

Considering all that, taking the bus his the most cost-effective option (and the cheaper one also).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = mx + b ( subtract b from both sides )

y - b = mx ( divide both sides by x )

Answer:

recursive: f(0) = 7; f(n) = f(n-1) -8

explicit: f(n) = 7 -8n

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is an arithmetic sequence with first term 7 and common difference -8. Since you're numbering the terms starting with n=0, the generic case will be ...

recursive: f(0) = first term; f(n) = f(n-1) + common difference

explicit: f(n) = first term + n·(common difference)

To get the answer above, fill in the first term and common difference values.
