PLEASE HELP THANK YO Your group has $120 available for the banquet. Any other costs must be covered from selling tickets for the event. You decided to take care of the major cost first–hall rental and caterer. Each caterer you approach is associated with a specific hall. Caterer One charges $45 per person. The cost of using the hall is inclusive. Caterer Two charges $250 for hall rental plus $28 per person. Cater Three charges $500 for hall rental plus $20 per person. 1. Write the equation to represent the cost of each caterer. Use C to represent cost and n to represent number of people. (3 marks)

The cost C, of hosting the banquet with the services of Caterer One is;

C = $ 45·n

The cost C, of hosting the banquet with the services of Caterer Two is;

C = $250 +  $ 28·n

The cost C, of hosting the banquet with the services of Caterer Three is;

C = $500 +  $ 20·n

Step-by-step explanation:

The information includes;

The amount available to the group for the banquet = $120

The number of people attending the banquet = n

The cost incurred in hosting the banquet = C

The major costs in hosting the banquet are hall rental and caterer

The cost per caterer are as follows;

Caterer One

The cost per person including the hall = $45

Therefore, the cost incurred, C, in hosting the banquet using caterer one is equal;

C = n × $45 = $ 45·n

Caterer Two

The hall rental = $250

The cost per person = $28

Therefore, the cost incurred, C, in hosting the banquet using caterer two is equal;

C = $250 +  n × $28 = $250 +  $ 28·n

Caterer Three

The hall rental = $500

The cost per person = $20

Therefore, the cost incurred, C, in hosting the banquet using caterer three is equal;

C = $500 +  n × $20 = $500 +  $ 20·n.

If the polynomial in the numerator is a lower degree than the denominator, the x-axis (y = 0) is the horizontal asymptote. If the polynomial in the numerator is a higher degree than the denominator, there is no horizontal asymptote. There is a slant asymptote
