Question

An amusement park charges an entrance fee of $20 and the rides cost $4 each. Suppose you write a function for the total cost for entering the park and riding a. Number of the rides. What is the domain of the function based on the given context?

Answer 1

With the information provided, you can say that the total cost is equal to the entrance fee plus the price per ride for the number of rides, which would be:

C(x)=20+4x,where:

x is the number of rides

The domain of the function refers to all the inputs that the function can have and in this case, the domain consists of all real numbers greater than or equal to zero since x refers to the number of rides and it can't have a negative number.
