Answer:

a. The Mexican Airline offers a better deal for 9 students to travel.  

b. 10 students

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The Mexican Air airline offers a round trip airfare of $250 per person.

So, for 9 students the fare will be total $(250 × 9) = $2250

Now, the Fiesta airline offers a round trip airfare of $150 per person if the club agrees to pay a one-time group rate processing fee of $1000.

So, for 9 students the total fare will be = $[1000 + (150 × 9)] =$2350.

Therefore, the Mexican Airline offers a better deal for 9 students to travel.  (Answer)

b. Let for x students both the airline offers the same total costs.

Then we can write  

250x = 1000 + 150x {From the conditions given}

⇒ 100x = 1000

⇒ x = 10

So, if the number of students is 10, then only both the airlines will take same fare. (Answer)

Suppose you know the perimeter of n octagons arranged as shown. What would you do to find the perimeter if 1 more octagon was ad
kogti [31]

As shown in the figures given :

For Figure 1 : perimeter = 8 units   [As can be seen in the figure]

For figure 2(with 2 octagons) : perimeter = 8 × 2 - 1 = 15 units    [since 1 side is common ]

For figure 2(with 3 octagons) : perimeter = 8 × 3 - 2 = 22 units  [since 2 sides is common ]

If one more octagon is added

then perimeter = 8 × 4 - 3 = 29 units    [since 3 sides will be common ]
