Answer 1

Jim provides photos for two online sites: site A and site B.

Site A pays $0.85 for every photo Jim provides.

The amount in dollars (y) site B pays as a function of the number of photos provided (x) is represented by the equation y = 0.40x.

How much more was Jim paid at site A than at site B, if he provided five photos for each site?

$1.15
$1.35
$2.15
$2.25

Answer 3

A way to represent the amount of money that site A requires for \(x\) number of photos is \(y = $0.85x\).

We already know the equation for site B, which is \(y = $0.40x\).

If \(x = 5\), substitute it back into the equation for site A we will get...? And for site B we will get...?

Answer 4

i do y=0.40(5) ?

Answer 5

Yes.

Answer 6

ok..
y=2

Answer 7

Correct. What about for site A?

Answer 8

whats the equation for site A again?

Answer 9

\(y = $0.85x\)

Answer 10

ok.. and the x is 5?

Answer 11

Yes

Answer 12

ok..
