Jeff provides photos for two online sites: site A and site B.

Site A pays $0.65 for every photo Jeff provides.

The amount in dollars (y) site B pays as a function of the number of photos provided (x) is represented by the equation y = 0.60x.

How much more was Jeff paid at site A than at site B, if he provided five photos for each site?

$0.25
$0.50
$2.30
$2.70

$0.25 you just have to multiply .65 times 5 for site A which is $3.25 and for sure b just plug in 5 for x and multiply by .60 which gives you $3.00 so site A gives you $0.25 more

Answer: $0.25

Explanation:

Given: The amount paid by Site A for every photo Jeff provides = $0.65

Then, the amount paid by Site A for 5 photos Jeff provides=
5*0.65=\$3.25

Also, the amount in dollars (y) site B pays as a function of the number of photos provided (x) is represented by the equation
y = 0.60x

So, for x = 5 photos, the amount paid by site B =
y=0.06*5=\$3.00

Now, the difference in payment done by Site A and Site B =
\$3.25-\$3.00=\$0.25

Hence, Jeff was paid $0.25 more at site A than at site B, if he provided five photos for each site.
