28000/7 = 4000 M T TH F --> 4000 *4*6 W --> 4000 *0 S Su --> 4000*2*10

yeah and then you add them all together. They key to solving his problem is that an equal number of people visited the park on each day meaning that the total amount of people divided by 7 will give you the amount of people who visited the park on a certain day. Then you times it by the cost per day and you add them all together.

But why would you count four thousand for Wednesday becuase it is free. I don't think that u have to count the four thousand. I got the answer of 176,000.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

I did do 24*4000=96000 Then I did 8000*10=80000 96000+80000=176000

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

So is it 176000?

OpenStudy (dumbcow):
