s given by the equation f(x) = .50x + 10, where x represents the number of tickets purchased and f(x) represents the total price. On opening weekend, they have a discount night where they decrease the ticket price to 5 cents each. How does this change the equation?
<span>In the equation f(x) = .50x + 10, $0.50 is the regular ticket price. On discount day, the tickets decrease to $0.05, so now, m = 0.05.
Therefore, the new equation is f(x) = .05x + 10 </span>
There are 5 cards less than nine that are prime, so there is a 5/9 chance of picking the first one prime. The second one would be 4/8 or 1/2, because you have removed a card from the deck. You multiply them together to get: 5/18.
