7. Example 3 The weekly ticket sales for anew comedy movie decreased each week. At the same time, the weekly ticket sales for a new drama movie increased each week. Models that approximate the weekly ticket sales S (in million dollars) for each movie are The weekly ticket sales for anew comedy movie decreased each week.

Models that approximate the weekly ticket sales S (in million dollars) for each movie are S = 60 – 8x S = 10 + 4.5x Where x represents the number of weeks each is in the theater. After how many weeks will the ticket sales for the two movies be equal?

8. Example 4 An airplane flying into a headwind travels 2000 – mile flying distance between Chicopee, Massachusetts and Salt Lake City, Utah in 4 hours and 24 minutes. On the return flight, the same distance was travelled in 4 hrs. Find the airspeed of the plane and the speed of the wind assuming both remain constant. An airplane flying into a headwind travels 2000 – mile flying distance between Chicopee, Massachusetts and Salt Lake City, Utah in 4 hours and 24 minutes. On the return flight, the same distance was travelled in 4 hrs. Find the airspeed of the plane and the speed of the wind assuming both remain constant.

9. Example 4 Verbal Model – Verbal Model – Use distance = rate x time Where the rate is… r1 – r2 = speed of plane against the wind r1 + r2 = speed of plane with the wind
