So we have to find an equation where we get from Donald's earnings to Fallon's earnings.... \(\Huge{41 \rightarrow 48}\) \(\Huge{46 \rightarrow 53}\) So we go from x to y....now how do you get from 41 to 48?

563blackghost (563blackghost):

Correct so \(\Huge{48=41+7}\) now what equation does this look like to your answer choices....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A B D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so B

563blackghost (563blackghost):

Well \(\large{48}\) is \(\large{y}\) and \(\large{41}\) is \(\large{x}\)....so lets substitute those in the equation.... \(\Huge{48(y)=41(x)+7}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D
