Please help A theatre company produced the musical Cats. The company had
to pay a royalty fee of $1250 plus $325 per performance. The same
theatre company also presented the musical production of Fame in
the same year. For the production of Fame, they had to pay a royalty
fee of $1400 plus $250 per performance.
a) Write an equation that relates the total royalties and the number
of performances for each musical.
b) Graph the two relations on the same grid.
c) When does the company pay the same royalty fee for the two
productions?
d) Why do you think the creators of these musicals would set
royalties in the form of a partial variation instead of a direct
variation?
