Question

The base ticket price for a football game is modeled by the function p(x) = 15x + 10, where x is the years since the team started playing football. Not included in each base ticket price is a service charge modeled by the function c(x) = 5x + 2. To find the total cost of a ticket, a fan should use what operation on the polynomials?

Answer 1

You're trying to figure out a cost that depends on two different charges, but both depend on X, and you've to always pay both when purchasing a ticket, so the operation you're looking for is addition, with a total cost formula equal to 20x + 12 (15x+10+5x+2).

Answer 2

To find the total cost of a ticket, a fan should use addition. The correct answer among all the options presented is letter “A” which is addition. I am hoping that this has helped you in determining the correct answer for this specific question.
