holly, Maria and johnny went to a fair over spring break. Holly paid $12.50 and went on one ride. Maria paid $15.00 and went on two rides. Johnny paid $20.00 and went on 4 rides. With x being the number of rides and y being the total amount paid, is the situation linear and why
Yes, the situation is linear. x: 1, 2, 4 y: 12.50, 15, 20 As the amount of rides increases by one, the price increases by $2.50. Linear Equation: y=2.50x+12.50
