e owner of a skatepark wants to increase her entry fee of $5 Buy in increments of $0.50 currently the skate park has an average of 500 paying customers per week the equation (500 - 25x)( $5 + $0.50x) give me the estimated weekly income where X is the number of $0.50 entry fee price increases if the entry fee is increased to $7.50 what will be the expected average number of paying customers each week

375 paying customers

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find how much the fee was increased from $5.00 to $7.50

7.5 - 5 = 2.5

Then how many times the pay increase goes into that number to find your X value

2.5/.5 = 5

Now that we have found our x value lets plug it into the equation to find the money the park will make in increments of 1

500 - 25(1) = 475

500 - 25(2) = 450

500 - 25(3) = 425

500 - 25(4) = 400

500 - 25 (5) = 375

7.3

step-by-step explanation:

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places
