Question

For selling tickets, where you make $50 for signing up and $0.75 for each ticket sold, which equation in slope-intercept form represents how much money (in dollars) you make 9y) for selling x tickets?

A. y=50+0.75x
B. y=0.75x+50
C. y=50−0.75x
D. y=0.75x−50

Answer 1

The equation in slope-intercept form representing how much money you make (in dollars) for selling x tickets is y = 0.75x + 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation in slope-intercept form representing how much money you make (in dollars) for selling x tickets is:

y = 0.75x + 50

The equation is in the form y = mx + b, where m represents the slope (0.75) and b represents the y-intercept (50).

The slope of 0.75 means that for every ticket sold, you earn $0.75.

The y-intercept of 50 means that even without selling any tickets, you still make $50 for signing up.
