If this were to be graphed, the independent variable would be the price of the ticket for the rides. The dependent variable would be the total cost.
The fair admission is not a variable because it is a constant price for every single person who goes into the fair.
The problem asks to use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets. In order to fully write out the equation, we have to figure out what the fair admission costs.
43.75 = 1.25(25) + b
*b represents the fair admission
Multiply 1.25 by 25
43.75 = 31.25 + b
Subtract 31.25 to find what b costs.
12.50 = b
The fair admission costs $12.50.
Solution: y = 1.25x + 12.50
Just did a specific one of these; let's do the general case.
The point nearest the origin is (a,b).
The line from the origin through the point is
The line we seek is perpendicular to this one. We swap the coefficients on x and y, negating one, to get the perpendicular family of lines. We set the constant by plugging in the point (a,b):
That's standard form; let's plug in the numbers:

Answer:
make a graphical representation for our case do we have infinite lines pass through a point M?
Step-by-step explanation:
If the graphs of the equations do not intersect (for example, if they are parallel), then there are no solutions that are true for both equations. If the graphs of the equations are the same, then there are an infinite number of solutions that are true for both equations.
