Question

Elizabeth purchased a $20 bus pass. Each time she rides the bus $1.25 is deducted from the pass. What equation would represent this scenario? *

12 points
y= 1.25x - 20
y= -1.25x + 20
y= 20x - 1.25
y= 20x + 1.25

Answer 1

Answer of this question is Y=1.25-20

Answer 2

Y = 1.25x - 20

Explanation:

Everytime she rides the bus 1.25 is taken away from that 20.

The x = Every ride

For example

say she rode the bus 5 times so it would be

1.25 × 5 = 6.25 now you take the answer and subtract it from the 20

20 - 6.25 = 13.75

I hope this helped :)
