Using linear function concepts, it is found that the vehicles cost the same initially, as they have the same y-intercept.
What is a linear function?
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
In this problem, for both functions, the y-intercept is of b = 17,980, hence the vehicles cost the same initially.
