Answer:

p(x) = 38500 - 1500x.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average attendance was 25000 when the ticket price at $9. The average attendance rose to 28000 when the price lowered to $7.

Therefore, if the demand function p(x) where, x is the value of each tickets is linear then we have p(9) = 25000 and p(7) = 28000.

Hence, the demand function will be given as

\frac{p(x) - 28000}{28000 - 25000} = \frac{x - 7}{7 - 9}

⇒ p(x) - 28000 = 1500(7 - x)

⇒ p(x) = 28000 + 10500 - 1500x

⇒ p(x) = 38500 - 1500x. (Answer)

well, in short, the students and chaperones are at a 2 : 9 ratio, and we know there are 171 students, how many chaperones then, so long they maintain a 2:9 ratio?

\bf \cfrac{chaperones}{students}\qquad 2:9\qquad \cfrac{2}{9}\qquad \qquad \cfrac{x}{171}=\cfrac{2}{9}\implies 9x=2(171) \\\\\\ 9x=342\implies x=\cfrac{342}{9}\implies x=38
