Question

. The cost in dollars, y, to participate x days in a bike tour is a linear function. Lin’s bike tour is described by the equation y= 5x+ 50. The cost of Max’s bike tour is $120 for a 14-day bike tour. If both Lin and Max take 14-day tours, whose bike tour costs less? A Lin’s B Max’s C The cost is the same for both.

Answer 1

They will cost the same amount.

Explanation:

Lin: y=5x+50

since x is equal to the amount of days you would have to plug in 14.

y=5(14)+50

y=70+50

y=120

Max:120

Since they both cost 120 they are equal.
