Answer 1

a is the answer


hope it helps

Answer 2

Option C is correct.

Bobby has $300 in the yearbook fund and earns $13.50 for each yearbook sold.

Explanation:

Slope intercept form: An equation of line is given by:
`y=mx+b` ......[1] where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Given the linear equation:
`y = 13.50x+300`

Here, x represents the yearbook sold.

On comparing with the equation [1] we have;

m = $13.50

b =300

therefore, the best scenario best matches the linear relationship is:

Bobby has $300 in the yearbook fund and earns $13.50 for each yearbook sold.
