Felicia is considering two companies for the installation of her new carpet. The carpet companies installation rates are shown.

Carpet Company A: C = 1.35y + 100 where c is the cost and y is the number of square yards.

Carpet Company B: This company charges $2.05 per square yard for the carpet and the installation.

Identity the unit rate in dollars per square yard for each carpet company.​

Respuesta :

Using linear function concepts, it is found that the unit rate in dollars per square yard is of $1.35 for Company A and of $2.05 per Company B.

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

In this problem, for company A, the function is:

A: C = 1.35y + 100.

For company B, the function is:

B: C = 2.05y.

Considering the slopes, the unit rate in dollars per square yard is of $1.35 for Company A and of $2.05 per Company B.
