This is the 2nd time I've posted this answer... not sure why it didn't go through the first time. Let me know if you have questions. :)
F(6) means f times 6 so f6
I disagree with the student because the slope is the rate of change. The slope would be 10 because the rocks are increasing by 10 every month.
Answer:
The Answer is that Orchestra seats were $15 and Balcony seats were $9.
Step-by-step explanation:
400(x+6) + 250x = 8250
400x + 2400 + 250x = 8250
650x + 2400 = 8250
650x = 5850
x = 9
Proof:
400(15) + 250(9) = 8250
6000 + 2250 = $8,250
Figure out slope by using:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Plug in values:
29.98-15.49/50-25
Simplify:
14.49/25 = 0.5796
Then, use this ratio for the 40 lbs bag. So, then:
40*0.5796 = 23.184
So, your price for the 40 lbs bag should be $23.18 because cents only go up to 2 decimal places (otherwise, it would be $23.184).
