Both - J and L t are measured in people per hour and time t is measured in hours after midnight. These
functions are valid for 9 23, J > > the hours during which the park is open. At time 9, J there are no people in
the park.
(a) How many people have entered the park by 5:00 P.M. ( % J )? Round answer to the nearest whole number.
(b) The price of admission to the park is $15 until 5:00 P.M. ( % J ). After 5:00 P.M., the price of admission to
the park is $11. How many dollars are collected from admissions to the park on the given day? Round your
