Question

Tickets for a tour of a city cost $5. A tour will only happen when a total of at least 20 tickets and no more than 45 tickets have been sold. The income from ticket sales, y, when there are x tickets sold for the tour can be modeled using a linear function. For one tour, what is the range of the function for this situation?

Answer 1

y(x)=5x for (20≥x≤40)

Explanation:

Step one :

Given data

Cost of ticket =$5

Given that the number of tickets to be sold for the tour to happen should be at least 20 and not more than 40

Step two :

Let the number of tickets be x

And let the revenue or income be y

The function for the cost is expressed linearly as

y(x)=5x

The domain is y(x)=5x for (20≥x≤40)
