Question

The student council has $800 to spend on homecoming t-shirts. The number of t-shirts they can buy is a function of the price of the price of the t-shirt p, in dollars, given by n(p)= 800 over p. As p gets larger and larger, what does the end behavior of the function tell you about the situation? *

Answer 1

Answer:

n will get lower and lower

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation the number of shirts is being multiplied by the price of each individual shirt and ultimately equals a total of $800. This means that the total must always be equal to $800 and cannot surpass it or be blow this value. Therefore, if the value of p gets larger and larger the less the number of shirts (n) that the students will be able to buy. This is the only way for the total cost to remain steady.
