Hi i need help Each school year, the seventh graders who study Life Science participate in a special field trip to the city zoo. In 2010, the school paid $1,260 for 84 students to enter the zoo. In 2011, the school paid $1,050 for 70 students to enter the zoo. In 2012, the school paid $1,395 for 93 students to enter the zoo.
Is the price the school pays each year in entrance fees proportional to the number of students entering the zoo? How can you tell?
Identify the unit rate (constant of proportionality) and explain what it means in the context of this situation.
Create a graph representing this situation. Be sure to choose appropriate scales for both the x- and y-axes.
What would the school pay if 120 students entered the zoo? Explain how you can use your graph to find this value.
Write an equation and then use it to solve for how many students would enter the zoo if the school paid $1425?
