Question

Beginning in 2000, a sports team increased its ticket price by a constant amount each year until 2010.

Answer 1

Answer: $33

Step-by-step explanation:

The ticket cost $48 in 2005 and $57 in 2008 , the difference between the cost is

$57 - $48 = 9

it is said that it increased at a constant rate , that is it increased by 9 in three years which means it will increase by 3 per year.

the difference in years between 2005 and 2000 = 5 years.

The cost in the year 2000 = 48 - 3(5)

= 48 - 15

=33
