18. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles http://tickleme.tripod.com/sounds.html

19. Toy stores have discovered that the number of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deluxe toys sold in a month decreases as the price increases. This means that the number N, in hundreds of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deluxes sold is a function of the price, P in dollars of each toy. Specifically, at K-Mart, this function is N = 78 – 1.3P. At Toys “R” Us, this function is N = 93 – 1.6P. Neither store will sell Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deluxe for less than $25. 1.How many Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deluxes will K-Mart sell in a month if they charge $40 per toy? 2. What price should Toys “R” Us charge for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deluxe in order to sell 3,700 of them? Show an algebraic solution. 3. If both stores sold the same number of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deluxes in March, how many Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deluxes did each store sell and what price did they charge? Show an algebraic solution. 4. Verify your answer to question 3 using the table option on the graphing calculator. Call your teacher over to see your group’s calculator screen. 5.Use the Toys “R” Us formula to obtain a formula expressing P as a function of N. 6.Use your answer to number 5 to determine the price Toys “R” Us should charge in order to sell 1,850 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deluxes.
