Answer: For groups with over 3 people, Family Fun Land is the best option. It's cheapest for groups of 1 or 2 to go to Blue Jay Bay.

Explanation:

Family Fun Land | y = total $, x = # of people

y = 12x + 40

Blue Jay Bay

y = 22x + 12

2 People

y = 12(2) + 40

y = 64

y = 22(2) + 12

y = 56

3 People

y = 12(3) + 40

y = 76

y = 22(3) + 12

y = 78
