Steve is managing a skate park and has been analyzing the attendance data. Steve has found that the number of visitors increases exponentially as the temperature increases. Steve has also found a linear equation that models the number of people who leave the park early depending on the temperature. Describe how Steve can combine these two functions into a new function and explain what that function would predict.

maybe i can help so, N, the total number of visitors, it could be found : N = V - L. To write this as a function of temperature, we just replace V and L with their equivalents from the previous parts: N = a^t-(mt+b) understand??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is the a^t-(mt+b)

alones (alones):

o.k so you see it's describes the situation i'll try t explai it again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks

@AloneS

alones (alones):

what/i'm here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you explain what the equation a^t means

alones (alones):

^this means exponent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know that but what does everything stand for in that equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which are each functions that we are combining

alones (alones):

o.k so u don't understan variable do u have any options there??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no I have to write an answer

alones (alones):
