Fun park charges an entry fee of $2 for any family with less than 5 members. The park charges $3 less than the number of family

A piecewise function is a function that behaves differently in different intervals.

Here the piecewise function is:

f(x) = $2     if    x < 5  

f(x) = x - $3  if   x ≥ 5

We know that:

"Fun park charges an entry fee of $2 for any family with less than 5 members."

"The park charges $3 less than the number of family members for the entry of any family with 5 or more members."

If we define x as the number of members of a family, the function of the price will be:

f(x) = $2     if    x < 5 (the cost is $2 if the family has less than members)

f(x) = x - $3  if   x ≥ 5   (the cost if the family has 5 members or more)

If

Looking at this problem in terms of geometry makes it easier than trying to think of it algebraically.

If you want the largest possible x+y, it's equivalent to finding a rectangle with width x and length y that has the largest perimeter.

If you want the smallest possible x+y, it's equivalent to finding the rectangle with the smallest perimeter.

However, the area x*y must be constant and = 100.

We know that a square has the smallest perimeter to area ratio. This means that the smallest perimeter rectangle with area 100 is a square with side length 10. For this square, x+y = 20.

We also know that the further the rectangle stretches, the larger its perimeter to area ratio becomes. This means that a rectangle with side lengths 100 and 1 with an area of 100 has the largest perimeter. For this rectangle, x+y = 101.

So, the difference between the max and min values of x+y = 101 - 20 = 81.

How do I find the correct slope on a graph?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

To find the slope of a line from a graph, first choose 2 points along the line and write down the X and Y coordinates for each. Next, find the rise by taking the difference between the 2 Y coordinates. If the line slopes up as it moves to the right, the rise will be positive. If it slopes down, the rise will be negative.
