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

Jett Velazquez · Answer 1

E (T) = exponential function of visitors

L (T) = linear function of visitors leaving early

therefore C (T) = combined function of visitors in park at temperature, T = E (T) - L (T)
