Question

6. A cab company charges $8 per mile for a lift to the airport. What change would the company make to their charges to make this a non proportional situation? (1 point) Responses Charge $12 per mile instead of $8 Charge $12 per mile instead of $8 Charge a flat rate of $10 and then $8 per mile Charge a flat rate of $10 and then $8 per mile No changes are needed No changes are needed Charge $4 per mile instead of $8 Charge $4 per mile instead of $8 Question 6 7. One business charges $12 per t-shirt custom made. Another business charges $11 per t-shirt plus a $20 set up fee for custom made. If you were to graph both of these scenarios on the coordinate plane, the first graph would be proportional and the second non proportional. How would you transform the first graph to make it become a non proportional graph with the same y-intercept as the second graph? (1 point) Responses Right 20 Right 20 Left 1 Left 1 Left 20 Left 20 Right 1 Right 1 Up 1 Up 1 Up 20 Up 20 Skip to navigation

Answer 1

Question 6: To make the cab company's charges a non-proportional situation, the company would need to incorporate a fixed charge that isn't dependent on the miles traveled. Therefore, the correct response would be "Charge a flat rate of $10 and then $8 per mile."

Question 7: To transform the first graph (which represents the business that charges $12 per t-shirt) into a non-proportional graph that has the same y-intercept as the second graph (which has a $20 setup fee), you would need to shift it to incorporate that fixed fee. Since the second graph starts at $20 and then includes the $11 per t-shirt charge, you can make the $12 per t-shirt graph also start at $20. Therefore, the correct response would be "Left 20."

These transformations change the initial starting point of the proportional graph to match the non-proportional scenario of the setup fee, thereby affecting its proportionality.
