a family went to a baseball game. the cost to park the car was $5 AND THE COST PER TICKET WAS $21. WRITE A LINEAR FUNCTION IN THE FORM Y=MX+B, FOR THE TOTAL COST OF GOING TO THE BASEBALL GAME,Y, AND THE TOTAL NUMBER PEOPLE IN THE FAMILY,X.
We have:
y = 21x + 5
Since the cost of each ticket is $21, we multiply this by x, the total number of people in the family.
We add 5 as the cost to park the car, which fits the entire family, and is a one time cost.
