Question

14.A festival charges a one-time $24 admission fee. Each ride at thefestival cost $4.342Number of Rides1Total Cost ($)

Answer 1

The one timwe admission fee is the cost when the number of rides is 0 (initial value or y-intercept)

As the cost for each ride is $4; the slope is 4.

y=total cost

x=number of rides

Equation that describes the situation:

`y=4x+24`

Use the equation aboe to find the total cost depending of the given number of rides:

`\begin{gathered} when\text{ x=1} \\ y=4(1)+24 \\ y=4+24 \\ y=28 \\ \\ \\ When\text{ x=2} \\ y=4(2)+24 \\ y=8+24 \\ y=32 \\ \\ \\ When\text{ x=3} \\ y=4(3)+24 \\ y=12+24 \\ y=36 \\ \\ \\ When\text{ x=4} \\ y=4(4)+24 \\ y=16+24 \\ y=40 \end{gathered}`

Then, the table is:
