Question

Tickets to a baseball game cost $22 each and parking costs $10.
What is the equation of the line that represents the cost of attending the game?
y – 22 = 10x
y = 22x + 10
y = 22x – 10
22x + y = 10

Answer 1

Let x = number of tickets and y = total cost. Each ticket is $22 and parking is a fixed $10, so

y = 22x + 10.

(Answer: y = 22x + 10)
