Tickets to a concert are available online for $30 plus a one time handling fee of $1.50. The total cost of the function of the number of tickets bought. What is the function rule that models cost of the concert tickets? Evaluate the function of 6 tickets.
Ok, if each ticket is $30, and you pay a one-time handling fee of $1.50, then wouldn't you agree the price depends solely on how many tickets you buy? With that in mind, the variable goes with the price of each ticket: f(x)=30x+1.5 Because no matter what, you'll pay the $1.50 just once. Now, say 6 tickets are bought: f(6)=30(6)+1.5 To simplify: f(6)=180+1.5 f(6)=181.5 So to buy 6 tickets, you would have to form over $181.50 Hope this helps!
