Yes the trip is worthwhile. If you save $50, but it takes you $10 in gas o get theready & $10 in gas to get back you still have $30 saved.
If you need help visualizing this, you might draw vertical lines at distance = 1 and at distance = 5. Look at the points where those lines cross f(x). The vertical difference is perhaps 350 ft. Look at where the lines cross g(x). That vertical distance may be about 200 ft.
The vertical change from 1 to 5 is considerably less for g(x) than for f(x).

45 = 5h. To find h, divide each side by 5.
9 = h. To ensure we have the correct answer, plug 9 into our original equation.
45 = 5(9)
45 = 45

Not impressed that you consider yourself "too lazy" to at least get started on the solution of this problem. Why not "give it the old college try?"
Start by choosing letters to represent the unit cost of each popcorn and drink:
p: popcorn, d: drink.
Then 2p + 3d = $22.25 and 12p+4d=$39.00
Note that the unit of measurement of all 6 terms here is " $ ".
Solve this system of linear equations simultaneously:
2p + 3d = $22.25
12p+4d=$39.00
In your shoes I would mult. the first equation by -6 and then combine the result with the second equation. p will temporarily disappear, and you'll be left with an equation in d only, enabling you to find the unit cost of a drink.
Come on. Show your stuff. You'll need to respond through Comments.
