Understanding Pool Pricing Offers

The video tutorial explains how to determine when a special pool pricing offer becomes more cost-effective than the standard pricing. It introduces the problem, defines variables, and sets up an inequality to compare costs. The tutorial walks through calculating costs for both the special deal and standard pricing, formulates an inequality, and discusses its simplification.

What is the initial fee for the special offer at the city pool?

• $10

• $40

• $20

• $30

How much does the daily admission cost with the special offer?

• $2

• $4

• $6

• $8

What is Irene trying to determine about the pool visits?

• The best time to visit the pool

• The number of days after which the special offer is cheaper

• The total cost of visiting the pool for a month

• The best swimming techniques

In the standard pricing scenario, how much does each pool visit cost?

• $8

• $7

• $6

• $5

What is the formula for the total cost in the special deal scenario?

• $4N

• $20 + 4N

• $20 + 8N

• $8N

What inequality represents when the special offer is a better deal?

• 20 + 8N < 4N

• 20 + 4N < 8N

• 20 + 8N > 4N

• 20 + 4N > 8N

What does the inequality 20 + 4N < 8N help determine?

• The number of days after which the special offer is more economical

• The total cost of the special offer

• The initial fee of the special offer

• The number of days after which the standard offer is more economical

If Irene visits the pool for zero days, which offer is better?

• Neither is applicable

• Both are the same

• Standard offer

• Special offer

What is the main goal of simplifying the inequality?

• To find the exact cost of each visit

• To find the best time to visit the pool

• To determine the break-even point for the special offer

• To calculate the total monthly cost

What happens if Irene visits the pool enough times?

• The special offer becomes more expensive

• The special offer becomes a better deal

• The standard offer becomes cheaper

• The costs remain the same
