Solution: We are given below data:
Now to find the mean deviation, we use the below formula:
Where:
represents the summation
X, represents the observation.
represents the mean
N represents the number of observation.
Therefore, the mean deviation is:
= 4
Let x be the number of days.
Daily pass:
65x + 30x
95x
Season pass:
400 + 30x
95x > 400 + 30x
65x > 400
x > 6.15
The number of days can't be 6.15, so you must round. You can't go down because then the price will be more expensive, so you have to round up.
It would take 7 days until the season pass is less expensive than the daily pass.
----------------------
You can check this by plugging in the x.
95x > 400 + 30x
95(7) > 400 + 30(7)
665 > 400 + 210
665 > 600
The daily pass is more expensive than the season pass.
Let y = (b)ˣ
1) if b> 0, then growth, whatever the value of x>0
2) if b< 0, then decay, whatever the value of x >0
3) if b<0, then decay, whatever the value of x >0
4) if b<0, then growth, whatever the value of x <0
In order to answer this question I need to see a diagram. Do you have one?
