Question

Which scenario best matches the linear relationship shown in the table ?

days|dollars
0 76
2. 48
4. 20
6. -8




A.) Kathryn had $76 and spent $28 each day.
B.) Kathryn had $76 and earns $14 per day
C.) Kathryn had $76 and spent $14 each day
D.) Kathryn spends $28 each day

Answer 1

The answer is C. because on the chart it goes by 2 days not one so you'd need to divide. 76-48=28 (so she would spend 28 dollars per 2 days but its asking for ONE day so you'd divide that) 28/2=14

I tried to explain it as well as I could, hope this helped!

Answer 2

C.) Kathryn had $76 and spent $14 each day

Explanation:

Kathryn had $76 at the starting.

At the end of the second day, Kathryn had 48

He spent 76-48=28 in two days

Each day he spent = 28/2 = $14

Therefore, answer is C) Kathryn had $76 and spent $14 each day

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.
