Answer:

a) P=3(120-s)+200

b) 215 \leq P \leq 290

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can use a linear model to solve the problem.

s) Create an equation to express the increase on the price tickets and the number of seats sold

s number of seats, if w analyze the info given the number of seats after increase the price is given by 120-s.

And let P the price for the ticket. So after the increase in ticket price the expression for the increase is P-200.

We have an additional info, for each increase of $3 the number of setas decrease 1. And the equation that gives to us the price change in terms of the increase of price is:

P-200=3(120-s)

So then our linear equation is given by:

P=3(120-s)+200

b) Over a certain period, the number of seats sold for this flight ranged between 90 and 115. What was the corresponding range of ticket prices?

So for this case we just need to replace the limits into the linear equation and see what we got:

P_L=3(120-90)+200=290

P_U=3(120-115)+200=215

So the corresponding range of ticket prices is:

215 \leq P \leq 290

chad wants to buy some books over the internet. each book costs $10.01 and has a shipping cost of $9.96 per order. if chad wants
Serga [27]
If you would like to find the inequality that shows the maximum number of books that he can buy, you can do this using the following steps:

p ... number of books

$10.01 * p + $9.96 <= $50
10.01 * p + 9.96 <= 50
10.01 * p <= 50 - 9.96
10.01 * p <= 40.04
p <= 40.04 / 10.01
p <= 4 books

The correct result would be <span>9.96 + 10.01p ≤ 50, so p ≤ 4.</span>
