From Charlotte - Honolulu, Hawaii
Hotel per night: $191
Equation: y=191x+920
x= the amount of nights that you stay in the hotel
We will stay from March 30th, to April 7th, so x=8
y= total price
y=191(8)+920
y=1,528+920
y=2,448
On a graph, this would be a line because it is 1 solution and one equation.
From Charlotte - Paris, France
Plane ticket: $629 per person
Hotel per night: $50
Equation: y=50x+629
x= the amount of nights that you stay in the hotel
We will stay from March 30th, to April 7th, so x=8
y= total price
y=50(8)+629
y=400+629
y=1,029
On a graph, this would be a
From Charlotte - London, England
Hotel per night: $43
Equation: y=43x+543
x= the amount of nights that you stay in the hotel
We will stay from March 30th, to April 7th, so x=8
y= total price
y=43(8)+543
y=344+543
y=887
On a graph, this would be
Would these numbers meet up at some point?
Comparing the Costs of the Trip
Paris: $1,029
London: $887
I think that these prices are all different because for example, in Honolulu, there are a lot of man made attractions that people like to go to, and in order to pay for those attractions, I think that the plane ticket prices are increased, where as in London and Paris, there are many old buildings and natural artifacts that people enjoy to see, such as the Eiffel Tower, and Big Ben.
