Answer:

B. PQ = 23, QR = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In segment PR,

Q is the point between points P and R,

That is, PR = PQ + QR,

We have, PR = 40 unit, PQ = 5x - 2 and QR = x + 12,

By substituting the values,

40 = 5x - 2 + x + 12

40 = 6x + 10

30 = 6x

⇒ x = 5

Hence, PQ = 5(5) - 2 = 25 - 2 = 23 unit,

And, QR = 5 + 12 = 17 unit

It's a linear function with y-intercept = 12.

The slope-intercept form:

$f(x)=mx+b\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Let's read the coordinates of two points on the graph:

(2, 15) and (4, 18)

Substitute to the formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{18-15}{4-2}=\dfrac{3}{2}=1.5$

We have the equation of a line:

$\boxed{f(x)=1.5x+12}$

We need calculate the value of function for x = 1 and x = 20.

Substitute:

$f(1)=1.5(1)+12=13.5$

$f(20)=1.5(20)+12=30+12=42$

$12 is the "Fixed Fee", therefore the discounted entrance fee to the art museum is

$\$13.50-\$12.00=\$1.50$

The total cost is $42.00 after 20 visits.
