You plan to attend the state fair next year. You will spend $14 on admission to enter the fair plus $2 for each ride you go on.
Write an equation in slope intercept form that represents the total amount of money you will spend at the fair in relation to the number of rides you will go on.
A: What are you being told to do?
B: What is slope-intercept form?
C: The x represents____.
The y represents____.
D: in the given problem, what is the value of the y intercept and what does it represent?
E: in the given problem, what is the value of the slope and what does it represent?
F: write an equation in slope intercept form that represents the total amount of money you will spend at the fair in relation to the number of rides you will go on.
A: You are being told to write an equation in slope-intercept form that represents the total amount of money you will spend at the fair in relation to the number of rides you will go on.
B: Slope-intercept form is a linear equation in the form y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.
C: In this problem, the x represents the number of rides you will go on.
The y represents the total amount of money you will spend at the fair.
D: Since the problem states that you will spend $14 on admission even if you do not go on any rides, the value of the y-intercept is $14. It represents the fixed cost of admission.
E: The slope in this problem is $2. It represents the additional cost per ride.
F: The equation in slope-intercept form that represents the total amount of money you will spend at the fair in relation to the number of rides you will go on is y = 2x + 14.
