Cost Analysis for Six Flags Tickets with John and Friends
In this project, we analyze the total cost for John and five friends to visit Six Flags, where each ticket costs $34.99. Using the equation Y = 34.99x, we determine the total cost (Y) based on the number of tickets (x). The independent variable is the number of tickets (x), while the dependent variable is the total cost (y). A table of values is created with x-values (1 to 6) and corresponding y-values. The data is discrete, and it confirms that this relationship is indeed a function, as x-values do not repeat.

Function Project By : David Quinnelly
My Real World Problem • John and five of his friends would like to go to six flags. If the tickets cost $34.99 per person, how much would it cost for john and all of his friends to go?
The Equation Y= 34.99x or f(x)= 34.99x X= The number of six flag tickets Y= The total cost
Independent and Dependent • The Independent variable is x which is the number of Six Flags tickets. • The Dependent variable is y which is the total cost. • The total cost depends on the number of Six Flags tickets.
Domain and Range Domain: is the x values Range:is the y values Domain= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} Range= {34.99, 69.98, 104.97, 139.96, 174.95, 209.94} R A D O M A I N G E
Is it Continuous or Discrete? • My graph is Discrete because my data contains only points and not a line.
Is it a Function? • Yes, it is a Function because the x values don’t repeat.

Conclusion • For John to go to Six Flags by himself it would cost $34.99. But if he went with five of his friends it could cost up to $209.94.
