The average price of a movie ticket in the United States from 1980 to 2000 can be modeled by the expression 2.75+0.10x, where x is the number of years since 1980.
Which part of the expression corresponds to the cost of movie tickets in 1980?

Answer 1

Answer:

2.75

Step-by-step explanation:

0.10 represents the rate at which prices have increased since 1980..

2.75 represents the price in 1980

This can be confirmed by inputting 0 as the value of x.

2.75+0.10(0) = 2.75
