A clown will come to childrens parties for a base fees plus $5.25 per child.The total fee for the party with 10 children is $102.50
a) What is the rate of change
b)Write the equation for the cost of hiring the clown , F in terms of number of children ,c
c)Graph the equation from b.
d)What does the vertical intercept represent in this situation
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A clown will come to childrens parties for a base fees plus $5.25 per child.The total fee for the party with 10 children is $102.50
----------------
Let "x" be the number of children attending the party.
------------------
a) What is the rate of change
rate is [change in cost]/[change of one in # of children attending] = 5.25
--------------------
b)Write the equation for the cost of hiring the clown , F in terms of number of children ,c
You have a point and a slope:
Point: (10,102.50) and m=5.25
Substitute in F(c)=5.25x+b to solve for "b"
102.50=5.25*10+b
102.50 = 52.50 + b
b = 50
EQUATION:
F(x) = 5.25c + 50
=========================
c)Graph the equation from b.
----------------
d)What does the vertical intercept represent in this situation
The clown will receive $50 even if no students show up.
