Answer: D) y = 0.5x - 3
Step-by-step explanation: y = mx + b, m = slope, b = y intercept
<span>The answer to this question would be: A. the number of adults
</span>
In this question, there are 4 times as many students as adults going on the trip. If we put it into a function where s= student and a=adult, then we could get one equation:<span>
1. s=4a
</span><span>
Each student ticket cost $2 and each adult ticket cost $4. The total cost of the trip is $144. We also can get one equation for this
2. 2s+ 4a= 144
If you put the first equation into the second, you will get:
</span>2s+4a= 144
2(4a)+4a= 144
The function is already similar with <span>2(4x)+4x but it uses a instead of x. Then x = a = number of adult</span>
B is the answer to the question :)
Take the absolute value of the difference, then divide it by the original amount
|28 - 24.5| / 28 = 3.5/28 = 0.125..now we multiply that by 100 to get it into a percent 0.125 * 100 = 12.5% <== ur answer
