Question

For each 15 people that attend a wedding, there is one more person put onto the catering staff. Write a function to represent the situation. c=

Answer 1

Answer:

c=x/15 is required equation , where c is a function dependent on x and c is number of persons required in catering for x number of people attending the wedding.

Step-by-step explanation:

lets assume number of people attending a wedding be represented by variable x

for 15 people attending a wedding , person in catering staff = 1

so for 1 person attending a wedding , person in catering staff = 1÷15 = 1/15

so for x person attending a weeding ,  total person in catering staff = x × person in catering staff for 1 person attending a wedding = x×1/15 = x/15

Assuming  c is number of person required in catering staff then

c = x/15  that is c is a function of x , where c represents required people in catering staff and x is number of people attending a wedding.

hence required function is c equal to x/15

in case if we required total number of person , than that it is given by x + x/15.

lets say if t is function representing total number of people , that

t = x + (x/15) , where x is number of people attending the wedding
