Kiley spent $20 on rides and snacks at the state fair. If x is the amount she spent on rides, and y is the amount she spent on snacks, the total amount she spent can be represented by the equation x+y=20. Is the relationship between x and y linear? Is it proportional? Explain.

Respuesta :

It is linear because there is no relationship with the number of snacks per ride, nor rides per snack.  Kiley didn't "have 1 snack for every 2 rides" for example.
