Bri and Annamarie are picking strawberries at two different strawberry farms that charge a flat fee plus a cost per basket picked. The graph shows the total cost for Annamarie based on the number of baskets of strawberries picked. The equation y = 3.25x + 5.5 shows the total cost for Bri with y representing the cost and x representing the number of baskets picked.Which statements about the baskets picked by the two girls are true?Select each correct answer.a) Annamarie pays $2.75 per basket picked.b) The farm where Bri picks charges less per basket picked.c) Bri pays $5.50 per basket picked.d) The farm where Bri picks charges less of a flat fee.

Question
Answer:
The correct answer is a & d.
If you find the equation for Annamarie, you get y = 2.75x+ 11.

Using the slope formula to find what Annamarie pays per basket.
(38.5 - 11)/(10 - 0) = 2.75
Annamarie's flat fee is $11 and Bri's flat fee is $5.50
