Question

Felicia is considering two companies for the installation of her new carpet. The carpet companies installation rates are shown.Carpet Company A: C = 1.35y + 100 where c is the cost and y is the number of square yards.Carpet Company B: This company charges $2.05 per square yard for the carpet and the installation.Identity the unit rate in dollars per square yard for each carpet company.Part 2 is asking me "Which company has the greatest rate of change? Explain how this would affect the slope when graphed on a coordinate plane"

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost for a unit square yard is given as:

Company A = $101.35 per square yard

Company B charges $2.05 per square yard

Company B has the greatest slope. The line for Company B is steeper as a result of this.

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A:

C = 1.35y + 100

The cost for a unit square yard is given as:

C = 1.35(1) + 100

= $101.35

Company B charges $2.05

Part 2

Company B has the greatest slope. The line for Company B is steeper as a result of this.
