A fan pays$1575.00 for 44 premium seat tickets. Another fan pays $2975 for 88 premium seat tickets. Write a linear model for the cost of premium seat tickets based on the number of tickets a fan buys.Use C to represent the cost and t represent the number of tickets purchased. (Simplify your answer. Type your answer in slope-intercept form. Use integers or fractions for any numbers in the equation.) The answer is _________
for t1 = number of premium seat tickets = 44
C= Cost = 1575.00
Cost = intercept + slope*number of premium seat tickets
1575.00 = intercept + slope*44 (1)
for t1 = number of premium seat tickets = 44
C= Cost = 1575.00
Cost = intercept + slope*number of premium seat tickets
2975 = intercept + slope*88 (2)
Subtracting (1) from (2)
2975 = intercept + slope*88
-1575.00 = -intercept - slope*44
--------------------------------------------------
1400 = slope*44
Hence slope = 1400/44 = 31.8182 and intercept = 175
C = intercept + slope*t
C = 175 + 31.8182*t
