Answer:

B(x) is the better option

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that these functions represent the pay f(x) in hours, x. Function B would increase linearly on a greater scale because each X is being multiplied by 20.

You'll notice this trend for larger numbers, such as 10.

A(x) = 5(10) + 20 = 70

B(x) = 20(10) + 5 = 205

Therefore, your answer is B.
