The equation t = p + 12 is a function describing the wait time, t, in minutes for a person to get onto a certain ride at a theme park on a Saturday
afternoon. The number of people ahead in line is represented by p.
If 27 people are ahead of Brandon in line, how long, in minutes, will he expect to wait?

Answer:

since t(time) is the p(number of people)+ 12 then

in this scenario

t= 27+ 12

t= 39

so he should expect to wait 39 minutes
