(04.02 LC)
Jim provides photos for two online sites: site A and site B.

Site A pays $0.85 for every photo Jim provides.

The amount in dollars (y) site B pays as a function of the number of photos provided (x) is represented by the equation y = 0.40x.

How much more was Jim paid at site A than at site B, if he provided five photos for each site?

Answer 1

site B pays (y) dollars which is 40% of what site A pays for 5 photos (x) - hence

y=0.40*5

OR

40/100=>4/10=>2/5

2/5*5/1= y

Answer 2

Hello! The answer is D: $2.25.
