Answer:

T1(n) = 25n +119.50  where n belongs to 1 \leq n.

T2(n) = 20n + 59 where n belongs to 50\leq  n.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two situations first is for normal days and the other is for days when 50 or more people are going to this restaurant for the party.

Let the number of person going for this restaurant be "n"

For normal day, we are given

catering service = $25 per person

service charge = $119.50  

Let the total cost of the restaurant be T

Cost for this case will be T1  

T1(n) = 25n +119.50  where n belongs to 1 \leq n

similarly for the case when 50 or more than that goes to this restaurant for party.

cost after discount

Catering service = $20.00 per person

service charge = $59.00

now the cost of this case will be T2

T2(n) = 20n + 59 where n belongs to 50\leq  n.

Therefore the two piecewise linear functions represents the total cost of the restaurant for serving n people.

it cost $35 for one adult and two children to attend a show. It cost $60 for two adults and three children to attend the same sh
N76 [4]
Assume that,
adult = x
child = y

x+2y = 35 (1st equation)
2x+3y = 60 (2nd equation)
x = 35-2y (3rd equation)

Substitute 3 into 2 :

2(35-2y) + 3y =60
70-4y +3y = 60
y = 10

x+2y = 35
x+2(10) =35
x +20 =35
x = 15

One adult = $15

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

11 1/3 minutes per mile.

3/4 miles jogged in 8 1/2 minutes.

So 1 mile jogged in: 8 1/2 divided by 3/4 = 8 1/2 x 4/3  = (17 x 4) / (2 x 3) = 11 1/3 minutes per mile
