Question

A group of friends 7 movie tickets for 108.50 . A family of 3 buys tickets to the same movie for 46.50 . Use the slope formula to determine how much tickets cost

Answer 1

$15.50 per person

Explanation:

Rewrite the information in ordered pairs:

(7, 108.50), (3, 46.50)

Set up and simplify the slope formula:

`(108.50-46.50)/(7-3)=(62)/(4)=15.50`
