Writing a Linear Function to Model a Scenario Pedro works as a newspaper deliverer. He receives a base pay plus an additional amount per newspaper delivered. Last week, Pedro delivered 5 newspapers and earned $37.50. This week, he delivered 20 newspapers and earned $75. Let x equal the number of newspapers Pedro delivers and y be the earnings he receives in dollars. Which linear function models the scenario?

y= 25+2.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = base pay , b = additional amount per newspaper.

Given: Last week, Pedro delivered 5 newspapers and earned $37.50.

i.e. 37.50=a+5b      (i)

This week, he delivered 20 newspapers and earned $75.

i.e. 75=a+20b         (ii)

Eliminate (i) from (ii)

37.50=15b

, i.e. additional amount per newspaper= $2.5

Put b= 2.5 in (i)

, i.e. base pay = $20

Let x= Number of newspapers Pedro delivers.

y=  Earnings he receives in dollars.

y= 25+2.5x will be the required function.
