Question

Simba travel agency arranges trips for climbing mount kilimanjaro. For each trip , they charge an initial fee of $100 in addition to a constant fee for each vertical meter climbed. For instance , the total fee for climbing to the Shira Volcanic cone, which is 3000 meters above the base of the mountain , is $400

let y represent the total fee(in dollars) of a trip where they climbed x vertical meters ​

Answer 1

Y X

400 3000

500 4000

600 5000

700 6000

Now you try it!

All you have to do to get the total amount is divide the meters by 10 and add 100.

The 100 is the initial fee, which is why you add it.

I know you divide by ten because in the example they gave you, 400 is the total, now, take the initial fee away to get 300, divide 3000 by 300 and you get 10.

Answer 2

y=100+0.1x
