The cost of refreshments (in dollars) is a function, h, of the number of people served, n. If h(n)=100/9n, find the number of dollars it would cost for refreshments for 27 people.
h(n) = 100 / 9 n
Substitute n = 27:
h(27) = (100 / 9) * 27
h(27) = 100 * 3
h(27) = 300 dollars
hope this helps :3
thanks, this is very helpful!
To find the cost of refreshments for 27 people, we need to substitute the value of n into the function h(n). Given that h(n) = 100/9n, we can calculate h(27) as follows:
1. Substitute n = 27 into the function h(n):
h(27) = 100/9 * 27
2. Simplify the expression:
h(27) = (100 * 27)/9
h(27) = 2700/9
h(27) = 300
Therefore, it would cost $300 for refreshments for 27 people.
