<u>Part (a)</u>
The variable y is the dependent variable and the variable x is the independent variable.
<u>Part (b)</u>
The cost of one ticket is $0.75. Therefore, the cost of 18 tickets will be:
dollars
Now, we know that Kendall spent her money only on ride tickets and fair admission and that she spent a total of $33.50.
Therefore, the price of the fair admission is: $33.50-$13.50=$20
If we use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets, the linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for ride tickets and fair admission can be written as:
......Equation 1
<u>Part (c)</u>
The above equation is logical because, in general, the total cost of the rides will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought and that will be 0.75x. Now, even if one does not take any rides, that is when x=0, they still will have to pay for the fair admission, and thus their total cost, y=$20.
Likewise, any "additional" cost will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought as already suggested. Thus, the total cost will be the sum of the total ride ticket cost and the fixed fair admission cost. Thus, the above Equation 1 is the correct representative linear equation of the question given.
Answer:
length = 60 foot, width = 30 foot
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangular part, A = 1800 ft²
Cost of fencing three sides is $ 6 per foot and cost of one side fencing is $18 per foot.
Let the length of the rectangle is l and the width of the rectangle is W.
Area = Length x width
A = L x W
1800 = L x W ...... (1)
Total cost of fencing, C = 6 x ( L + W + L) + 18 x W
C = 6 (2L + W) + 18 W
C = 12 L + 24 W
Substitute the value of W from equation (1),
in equation (2)


Differentiate both sides with respect to L:

Put it equal to zero for maxima and minima

L = 60 foot
and W = 30 foot
So, the costing is minimum for length = 60 foot and the width = 30 foot.

Answer:
The signup fee is $17
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The equation in point slope form is equal to

where
m is the slope or unit rate of the linear equation
(x1,y1) is a ordered pair of the line
Let
x -----> the number of months
y -----> the total cost of a gym membership
In this problem we have
The slope of unit rate is equal to

The ordered pair is

substitute
----> equation in point slope form
Convert to slope intercept form
---> equation in slope intercept form
The y-intercept is the signup fee (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)
therefore
The signup fee is $17
