erin is organizing a fundraiser to ourchase an air hockey tabel for her school. The tabke costs $900.00. Erin is asking for people to contribute to pay an equal share of the cost kf the table. She already has seven contributors signed up. a)write a function that models the cost per share, C, with respect to the number of new contributors, p. b)how many new contributors must Erin recruit in ordet for the cost of each share to be $50?
a) The function that models the cost per share, C, with respect to the number of new contributors, p, can be represented as:
C(p) = 900 / (7 + p)
b) To find out how many new contributors Erin must recruit in order for the cost of each share to be $50, we can set up an equation and solve for p:
50 = 900 / (7 + p)
50(7 + p) = 900
350 + 50p = 900
50p = 550
p = 11
Therefore, Erin must recruit 11 new contributors in order for the cost of each share to be $50.
