Answer:
Yes, in a Cartesian Coordinate system each point is given by two numbers. If the question is "where" the function has a max or min value, that's "x", the first number in pair. If the question is "what" is that max or min function value, thats "y", the second number in the pair
Answer:
For the problem we have:
Sam had 14 people at the party.
The party lasted for 4 hours.
He paid $2 for each person's skate rental and 3 for each person's entry ticket.
Suppose we want to know how much Sam spent on the party.
But we do not know if the $2 of the skate rental are per hour or per two hours, or in total, for example, if the amount is per hour, then the total amount for each skate is $2*4 = $8, so in the case that the rental depends on the time, we can not solve this problem because we do not have enough information.
If the $2 are fixed (do not depend on the time that the party lasted) then the fact that the party lasted for 4 hours does not matter.
We can calculate as 14 persons* ($2 + $3) each = 14*$5 = $70, then you can see that in this case the 4 hours data is not necessary
