Question

If it costs $12 to enter an amusement park and $0.50 per ride.

how would I explain in words the meaning of f(6) = 15 in context of the problem?

Answer 1

In this problem, the equation is basically as follows:

F(x)=0.5x+12

where f(x) is the total cost and x represents the number of rides

F(6)= 15 means that the total cost of the amusement park when a person rides six rides is $15.
