Problem 1
Suppose the Tahitian
Princess cruise ship has sailed 100 nautical miles in the past 5 hours. Find the average speed and be sure to use the
correct label.
Problem 2
A parasailor is going for a thrill ride moving 144 feet in 6 seconds. Find average the average speed using the
correct labels.
Problem 3
A cruiser in the South Pacific could
not seem to give up the cell phone…
While talking away about how stunning Bora Bora is, a cell phone bill
was racked up of $366. Assuming the
international roaming charge was $6 per minute, use a ratio to determine how
long was spent on the phone to the cost per minute.
Problem 4
St. Regis is a luxurious (and expensive!) resort in French Polynesia with world famous overwater bungalows. Suppose that 50 bungalows are booked for 9 nights resulting in $50,000 of revenue for the resort the first night, there was an increase in the rates the second night which resulted in $60,000 of revenue for the resort, the third night the hotel had $70,000 of revenue.
daily rate is what is charged per
night.
Revenue divided by 50 bungalows
revenue = Daily rate multiplied by 50 bungalows
(a) Find the daily rate of the first three nights.
(b) Notice a pattern with the daily rates and revenue for first 3 days? Model the same
daily rate and revenue pattern through day six on a graph.
(c) Model a $60,000 decrease in revenue over the
course of day seven through day nine in the graph. What is the revenue
for day seven, eight, and nine?
(d) What would the daily rates for day seven, eight, and nine be? Model this decrease on your daily rates graph.
