Write a function rule for finding the amount of daily pay,p, in the following situations. A bus driver gets paid $100 each day plus $0.20 per kilometer,k,

Answer 1

The function rule for finding the amount of daily pay for the bus driver is:

𝑝 = 0.20𝑘 + 100

Where 𝑝 is the daily pay, and 𝑘 is the distance traveled by the bus in kilometers.

This function is linear because the daily pay increases by a constant rate of $0.20 for each kilometer traveled. The y-intercept is $100, which is the daily payment if the bus driver does not travel any distance.
