Option A and Option B are available for passes to ride public transportation. Option A is represented by the equation y=4.25x . Option B is displayed in the graph. Which option is cheaper per day? Enter 1 for Option A. Enter 2 for Option B.

Answer 1

To determine which option is cheaper per day, we need to compare the cost for each option for one day of riding public transportation.

For Option A, the equation y=4.25x represents the cost per day, where x is the number of rides. If we plug in x=1 into the equation:

y=4.25(1)
y=4.25

So, Option A costs $4.25 per day.

For Option B, the graph is not provided in the question, so we cannot determine the cost per day directly from the graph.

Comparing the costs, Option A costs $4.25 per day. Since we do not know the cost per day for Option B, we cannot definitively say which option is cheaper. However, based on the information provided, Option A is cheaper per day.

Therefore, the answer is 1 for Option A.
