Answer:
g(x) = (1/6)(x +7)^2 -8
Step-by-step explanation:
The transformation ...
g(x) = a·f(x -h) +k
represents vertical scaling by a factor of 'a', right shift by h units, and up shift by k units. You want the function g(x) for f(x) = x^2, a = 1/6, h = -7, and k = -8. Those transformations give you ...
g(x) = (1/6)(x +7)^2 -8
Let's assume
the price of each train ticket is x
we are given
total number of family members =5
so, total cost of ticket = total number of family members*the price of each ticket
so, total cost of ticket =5*x
so, total cost of ticket =5x
now, we have
each family member buys a boxed lunch for $6.50
so, total cost of lunch box = total number of family members*price of each lunch box
so, total cost of lunch box = 5*6.50
total cost of trip = total cost of ticket+total cost of lunch box
we are given
total cost of trip is $248.50
now, we can plug values
and we get
now, we can solve for x
so,
the price of each train ticket is $43.2..........Answer
