Answer:

A. y = 0.50x + 12

y = 1.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that model the total cost of plan A is:

y = 12 + 0.50x

Because there is a cost of $12 that is independent of the number of rides x and there is a cost of $0.5 for each ride.

In the same way, the equation that model the total cost of plan B is:

y = 1.25x

Because there is only a cost of $1.25 for each ride.

Therefore, the system of equations that could be used to choose a ticket plan is:

A. y = 0.50x + 12

y = 1.25x
