Question 1018819: Hello ! This word problem has been nerving me for so long now. Please please please help me ! Thank you :)
An amusement park has two new rollercoasters . The number of people in line to ride each rollercoaster, P, varies depending on the time, t, in hours since the park opened. The length of the rollercoaster lines for any given time is modeled by the following system of linear equations.
P=6t+4
P=10t
Solve the system of equations graphically (please). How long after the amusement park opens will there be an equal number of people in each rollercoaster line? How many people are in each line when two lines are equal?
THANK YOU SO MUCH
