Answer:

The cost is a fixed $2, plus $3.25 for any additional hour.

Then if you rent it for x hours, the cost is:

c(x) = $2 + $3.25*x

Is this situation continuous or discrete?

Yes, it is discrete, because x is "the number of hours"

so if you rent it for 1.30 hours, they will say "ok, this is equivalent to two hours".

This means that while the values of x are continuous, the possible costs are:

{$2, $2 + $3.25, $2 + 2*$3.25, ....}

Which is a discrete set.

Then the sign for 1 to 5 hours will be:

1 hour ---------- $2 + $3.25 = $5.25

2 hours -------- $2 + 2*$3.25 = $8.50

3 hours--------- $2 + 3*$3.25 = $11.75

4 hours--------- $2 + 4*$3.25 =  $15

5 hours -------- $2 + 5*$3.25 = $18.25

In the other park the cost is only $4 for each hour (no fixed cost) then the total cost for x hours is:

c(x) = $4*x

Now, which option is better?

If we look at the costs for different numbers of hours for this other equation, we have:

1 hour ----- $4

2 hours ---- 2*$4 = $8

3 hours ----- 3*$4 = $12

4 hours ------ 4*$4 = $16

Then: if you want to skate 2 hours or less, Skate City is cheaper, if you want to skate more than that, kate Days is cheaper.

This happens because the first one has a smaller slope, meaning that is larger at first, but as x grows the price does not grow as much as in Skate City

What’s the answer to this?
Elina [12.6K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Line is passing through the points:

(-2,\:3)=(x_1,\:y_1) \:\&\: (2,\:5)=(x_2 ,\:y_2)

Equation of line in two point form is given as:

\frac{y -y_1 }{y_1 -y_2 } = \frac{x -x_1 }{x_1 -x_2 } \\ \\ \therefore \frac{y -3}{ 3 -5} = \frac{x -(-2) }{-2 -2} \\ \\ \therefore \frac{y -3}{ - 2} = \frac{x -(-2) }{-4} \\ \\ \therefore \frac{y - 3}{1} = \frac{x +2}{2} \\ \\ \therefore \: y-3= \frac{x}{2} + \frac{2}{2} \\ \\\therefore \: y= \frac{x}{2} + 1 +3\\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \: y= \frac{1}{2} \:x+ 4}}\\ is \: the \: required \: equation \: of \: line.
