Answer:


v(x)=32+8(x-1)

Explanation:

We have been given that the number of visitors to a park is expected to follow the function
v(x)=8(x-1), where x is the number of days since opening. On the first day, there will be a ceremony with 32 people in attendance.

The total number of visitors including the ceremony would be number of people on ceremony plus people at x number of days since opening that is:


v(x)=32+8(x-1)

Therefore, the function
v(x)=32+8(x-1) total visitors, including the ceremony.
