Question

70 POINTS PLEASE HELP. WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
Mrs. Ashe is planning to take her study group on a field trip to an amusement park. The regular cost is $50 per person. There is a party special that costs $35 per person with an additional $300 fee for a private room where students can eat lunch. Mrs. Ashe is trying to decide if she should use the regular price or the party special.



Part 1:

A) Write an equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) to show the total cost of the regular price with x people, where x = number of students in the study group and y = the total cost. (10 points)



B) Write an equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) to show the total cost of the party special with x people, where x = number of students in the study group and y = the total cost. (10 points)

Answer 1

Answer:

a) y = 50x + 0

b) y = 35x + 300

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The price is $50 (per person), so you multiply 50 by the number of people going (which is x).

b) The price is $35 dollars (per person), so you multiply 35 by the number of people (which again would be x). There is also an extra cost of $300.

Hope this helps! :)
