PLEASE HELP. For a field trip, a bus company charges a flat fee plus an additional fee per student. For 30 students, the total

1 answer:

3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

the change in cost of 145-135.50 = 9.50 for an increase of students from 25 to 30. The ratio of change of cost to change of students = 9.50/5 = 1.9 and becomes the slope coefficient "m" in the formula y= mx + b. y = the total cost, mx becomes the variable cost and b becomes the fixed cost. To find b, use the data point given where the total cost = $135.50 when the students = 25, or 135.50 = 1.9*25 +b. Solving for b yields $ 88. Note that the other data point is where the total cost is $145 for students = 30. Using the new total cost equation shows that 30*1.9+88= 145

Need help with 22 I don’t understand

Mila [183]

This is going to be hard to draw, but you just substitute Morning mugs for x and solve, and Morning glasses for y and solve. You do the same for the night mugs for x and solve.

For A solve it in a way that if you substitute X and Y in a way it will turn out to be 23 or 16 in the <em />correct Situation.

For B substitute the X and the Y so it will match up correctly.
