In one day, a ski lift can carry 11,200 people. the lift runs from 9: 00 am to 4: 00 pm. write and solve an equation to find the number of people the lift can carry in 1 hour. estimate the number of people who could ride the lift by noon. explain your reasoning.

9 to 4 is about 7 hours. So you can divide 11,200 by 7 to get 1600 every hour. By noon, it would be 2 hours after 9 until noon starts. So 1600 x 2 is 3,200 people by noon.

in mathematics, a function is a relationship between two variables such that the value of one of the variables, called the dependent variable, is determined by the value of the other variable, called the independent variable. there is a specific term we use to describe the set of independent variables of a function.
