Question

Kylee is managing a small theme park and has been analyzing the attendance data. Kylee has found that the number of visitors increases exponentially as the temperature increases. Kylee has also found a linear equation that models the number of people who leave the park early depending on the temperature. Describe how Kylee can combine these two functions into a new function and explain what that function would predict

Answer 1

E(T) = exponential function of visitors
L(T) = linear function of visitors leaving early
therefore C(T) = combined function of visitors in park at temperature,T = E(T) - L(T)
