Answer 1

Answer:

$\displaystyle Susan's\:lemonade\:stand\:is\:less\:expensive.$

Explanation:

Starting from the y-intercept of $\displaystyle [0, 8],$you do $\displaystyle \frac{rise}{run}$by moving four blocks north over 8 blocks east [west and south are negatives] to get $\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}, or\:0,5.$The rate of change [slope] of John's earnings is $\displaystyle 1\frac{3}{4}, or\:1,25,$while Susan's is 0,5, therefore you have your answer.
