ALGEBRAIC model that represents the following situation: "A local fair charges an entrance fee of $5, and costs $1.25 per ride.

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = 1.25x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The entrance fee is fixed, meaning it does not change. It is $5 for any person that wants to enter.

y = mx + b

only rates that change is dependent on how many rides you go on.

so 1.25 is your slope, m

y = the amount you will spend

x = the amount of rides you go on

b = the cost to enter the fair -- this is fixed.

put the equation together
