The Adventure Guides group at a local YMCA is planning a camping trip on the beach. It costs $3,150 to rent the campsites for the weekend. (a) Find a model for the per camper cost C in dollars for this camp out if p people attend. -Select- = (b) Find the cost per person for each camper if 90 people attend. (Include units in your answer. More information.) The per person cost for 90 campers to attend is per person. (c) What are a reasonable domain and range for this model? Domain: $$0 \le p \le 120$$ $$0 \le p < \infty$$ $$0 \le C \le 3150$$ $$1 \le p \le 120$$ $$26.25 \le C \le 3150$$ Range: $$0 \le C \le 3150$$ $$0 \le p \le 120$$ $$1 \le p \le 120$$ $$0 \le C < \infty$$ $$26.25 \le C \le 3150$$

The Adventure Guides group at a local YMCA is planning a camping trip on the beach. It costs $2,000 to rent the campsites for the weekend and pay for insurance for up to 105 campers. (a) Find a model for the per camper cost C in dollars for this campout if p people attend. C(p) = (b) Find the cost per person for each camper if 80 people attend. (Include units in your answer.) The per person cost for 80 campers to attend is $25 per person. (c) What are a reasonable domain and range for this model? Domain: 0 ≤ p ≤ 105 Range: $19.05 ≤ C ≤ $2000

The Adventure Guides group at a local YMCA is planning camping trip on the beach: It costs $3,500 to rent the campsites for the weekend and pay for insurance for up to 110 campers. (a) Find a model for the per camper cost C in dollars for this camp out if p people attend. Find the cost per person for each camper if 70 people attend: (Include units in your answer). The per person cost for 70 campers to attend is per person: What are reasonable domain and range for this model? Domain: 0 < p < 110 0 < p < 0 < C < 3500 1 < p < 110 31.82 < C < 3500 Range: 0 < C < 3500 1 < p < 110 0 < C < 0 < p < 110 31.82 < C < 3500
Supreeta N.
In Exercise 2 of Section $7.1,$ we found the model $$ C(p)=\frac{1500}{p} $$ where $C(p)$ is the per camper cost in dollars for an Adventure Guides camp out if $p$ people attend. Up to 90 people can attend. a. How many people must attend if the per camper cost is $\$ 30 ?$ b. How many people must attend if the per camper cost is $\$ 10 ?$
