[! ] ms. chen is planning to take her camp group on a field trip to pottery bayou where each person will create her own piece of art pottery. the regular cost is $20 per person. there is a group special that costs $10 per person with an additional $50 fee for a private room. ms. chen is trying to decide if she should use the regular price or the group special. a.) write an equation in slope intercept form to show the total cost of the regular price with x people b.) write an equation in slope intercept form to show the total cost of the group special with x people slope intercept form: y=mx+b - if b=0, you can simply use y=mx regular cost : y= group special cost : y=

the regular cost is $20.00 per person. but if ms. chen uses the group special it will cost $10.00 per person. in addition to this they need to pay $50.00 for a private room.

a. now we need to find the equation in slope intercept form that can show the total cost of the regular price with number of people.

lets say that represents the total cost so,

dollars.

so the equation to represent the total cost at the regular price is given by .

b. if ms. chen uses group special with number of people then, she needs to pay the cost per person in addition to that $50 for the private accommodation.

so, the equation to represent the total cost at group special is given by .

regular cost:

group special cost:
