To find the expected amount of money earned for driving 10 hours, we can substitute x=10 into the given equation:
y = 25x + 350
y = 25(10) + 350
y = 250 + 350
y = 600
Therefore, the statement B "The driver will earn $800 for driving 10 hours" is false, and the correct statement is D "The driver will earn $750 for driving 10 hours."
A study showed the relationship between the number of hours driving for DoorDash and the expected amount of money earned using the linear equation modeled as:
y=25x+350
Where x is the number of hours driving for DoorDash, and y is the expected amount of money earned. Which of the following statement is true according to the model?
A
Driving for 10 hours will add $100 to the driver's money earned.
B
The driver will earn $800 for driving 10 hours.
C
Driving for 10 hours will add $250 to the driver’s money earned.
D
The driver will earn $750 for driving 10 hours.
