You have decided to join a walk-a-thon to raise money for the local animal shelter. There are two teams that you can join. Team A raises $5.50 per mile they walk. Team B raises $6.00 for entering the race, and then $4.00 for every mile they walk.

Complete the table to show the amount of money Team A raises after walking the miles below. You can use the calculator to help you solve.

To complete the table for Team A, we'll use the formula \( d = 5.5m \) where \( d \) is the dollars raised and \( m \) is the number of miles walked.

Let's calculate the dollars raised for each number of miles:

  1. For 0 miles: \[ d = 5.5 \times 0 = 0.00 \]

  2. For 1 mile: \[ d = 5.5 \times 1 = 5.50 \]

  3. For 2 miles: \[ d = 5.5 \times 2 = 11.00 \]

  4. For 3 miles: \[ d = 5.5 \times 3 = 16.50 \]

  5. For 4 miles: \[ d = 5.5 \times 4 = 22.00 \]

  6. For 5 miles: \[ d = 5.5 \times 5 = 27.50 \]

  7. For 6 miles: \[ d = 5.5 \times 6 = 33.00 \]

Now, we can fill in the table:

| Number of miles (m) | Dollars raised (d) | |----------------------|---------------------| | 0 | 0.00 | | 1 | 5.50 | | 2 | 11.00 | | 3 | 16.50 | | 4 | 22.00 | | 5 | 27.50 | | 6 | 33.00 |

This completes the table for Team A.
