The function p(t) for the number of visitors over 1-year is an exponential function
- The increasing interval is: [33,52]
- The decreasing interval is: [0, 33]
- There is no critical point
The function is given as:
p(t) = 119 + (t-83)e^0.02t
Start by plotting the graph of the function p(t).
From the graph (see attachment), we have the parameters to be:
- Increasing: [33,52]
- Decreasing: [0, 33]
- Critical point = None
Hence, the function has no critical point

Answer:
$4
Step-by-step explanation:
The two purchases can be written in terms of the cost of an adult ticket (a) and the cost of a student ticket (s):
7a +16s = 120 . . . . . . . . price for the first purchase
13a +9s = 140 . . . . . . . . price for the second purchase
Using Cramer's rule, the value of s can be found as ...
s = (120·13 -140·7)/(16·13 -9·7) = 580/145 = 4
The cost of a student ticket is $4.

<em>Comment on Cramer's Rule</em>
Cramer's rule is particularly useful for systems that don't have "nice" numbers that would make substitution or elimination easy methods to use. If you locate the numbers in the equation, you can see the X-patterns that are used to compute the numerator and denominator differences.
The value of a is (16·140 -9·120)/(same denominator) = 1160/145 = 8. I wanted to show you these numbers so you could see the numerator X-pattern for the first variable.

Of course, graphical methods can be quick and easy, too.
