Question

Golden Corral charges $11 for a buffet plus $1 for each drink. Western Sizzlin charges $9 for a buffet plus $2 for each drink. Which restaurant has the best dea 1. Write 2 equations to represent the 2 restaurants. Predict if these equations will be linear of nonlinear (how do you know?). If they are linear will the lines point upward or downward (how do you know?). And this one too Graph the system of equations. (Show your x/y tables) **Use a ruler or your answer will not come out correctly** or Slope- intercept simulation copy and paste And this one too What is the point of intersection on your graph? What does this mean? And this one tooo Which restaurant would you go to? Why?

Answer 1

(golden corral) 11 + 1x = y. Western Sizzlin 9 +2x= y. These equations will be linear because these equations have the structure of y=mx+b, also when these equations are plotted on the graph they point upward. (I can't show a table, but I provided a pic of the graph so u can plot the points). The point of intersection is 2,13. The point of intersection means when the prices for both restaurants are equal to each other I would go to golden corral because if I have a lot of drinks it would be cheaper in the long run.
