Question

Tony has 6 dollars in change in his car. Every time he drives to visit his grandma, he pays $1.25 in tolls. Which graph represents the change Tony has in his car? graph of line going through (0, 1.25) and (1, negative 5), graph of line going through (0, 0) and (4, negative 5), graph of line going through (0, 6) and (1, 0), graph of line going through (0, 6) and (4,1)

Answer 1

If we let
y be the amount of change in Tony's car
x be the number of tolls he will pass through

Then, we have the equation:
y = 6 - 1.25x

Graphing this equation will result to a line going through (0,6) and *4,1)

The correct answer is the fourth option.
