Help Steve manages a skate park and he has been analyzing the attendance data. Steve finds that the number of visitors increases exponentially as the temperature increases, and this situation is represented by the function f(x) = 5x. Steve also finds a linear equation that models the number of people who leave the park early depending on the change in temperature, and it is represented by g(x) = −x + 6. The graph of the two functions is below. Find the solution to the two functions and explain what the solution represents.

third choice down

step-by-step explanation:

the first inequality is based on the number of adults and campers, and the second inequality is based on the cost of feeding both the adult and the camper.

we know that there is room for 525 people max.   it's ok to have less than 525, but it's not ok to have more than 525, so the inequality is less than or equal to.   the number combination of adults (x) and campers (y) cannot exceed this 525 max.   therefore:

x + y ≤ 525

now we talk about cost.   it costs $9 to feed one adult, so depending upon the number of adults you have (x) depends upon how much it will cost to feed that number of adults.   same with the campers, who cost $5 to feed.   the adults can be represented by 9x and the campers can be represented by 5y.   since the budget cannot exceed 1,200, the second inequality is:

9x + 5y ≤ 1200
