To create a graph that accurately shows the revenue collected from skaters at a 9:00 a.m. session, you would need to consider several factors regarding the admission costs and skate rentals. Here’s how to approach it:
-
Define the Types of Skaters:
- Children (ages 5-18): $6 admission
- Adults: $9 admission
- Children under 5: Free admission
- Skate rental: $3 (some skaters bring their own skates)
-
Determine the Breakdowns:
- You need data on how many children, adults, and children under 5 attended the session.
- You also need to know how many skaters rented skates versus brought their own.
-
Calculate Revenue:
- The total revenue can be calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Total Revenue} = (\text{Number of Children} \times 6) + (\text{Number of Adults} \times 9) + (\text{Number of Skate Rentals} \times 3) \]
-
Choose a Graph Type:
- A bar graph could effectively display the revenue collected, using different bars for children, adults, and total skate rentals.
- Alternatively, a pie chart could show the proportion of revenue coming from different categories (children admissions, adult admissions, and skate rentals).
-
Create the Graph:
- Label the axes appropriately (if using a bar graph) or the sections (if using a pie chart).
- Visualize how much revenue each category contributes.
If you were provided with specific numbers of each type of skater, you would plug those into your calculations to generate an example revenue figure, and then you could sketch a corresponding graph based on those values.
Without specific attendance data, an example graph description could be:
- A bar graph showing three bars:
- One for revenue from children,
- One for revenue from adults,
- One for revenue from skate rentals,
- A total bar representing the sum of all revenues.
Make sure to annotate the graph with corresponding revenue amounts to increase clarity.
