Question

The cost of admission to the local museum is given in the table.

Answer 1

Explanation:

find the slope by finding the difference between tickets

6.75 - 4.50 = 2.25

so the slope is 2.25x

we find the y - intercept by subtracting 2.25x until we are at 0 tickets so we need to go back down twice (or just once with 4.50) from 4.50

4.50 - 2.25 - 2.25 = 0

so the y intercept is 0

so the equation is y = 2.25x
