Compare the costs of bike trips from the two companies shown . for both the cost is a linear function of the number of days . which statement is true ?

Scenic pathways has no signup fee and a greater cost per day

Missing Portion:

The cost of trips from two companies is missing and the multiple choice options are also not written. I have attached a figure showing the full statements.

Step-by-step explanation:

Backcountry tour :

Charges:

Sign up fee = $25

Cost per day $35

Using this information:

1 Day cost = $ 35

2 Day cost = 35 x 2 = $70

3 Day cost = 35 x 3 = $105

4 Day cost = 35 x 4 =$140

5 Day cost = 35 x5 =$175

Scenic Pathways:

1 Day cost = $45

2 Day Cost = $90

3 Day Cost = $135

4 Day Cost = $180

5 Day Cost = $225

No sign up fee mentioned ,

So Sign up fee = 0

As we can see by comparing both, every day's cost of scenic pathways is greater than backcountry tour, meanwhile scenic pathways has zero or no signup fee.

Hence, the remaining statements are incorrect

a.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1 distribute 2 to every term in the parentheses

step 2 add 10 on both sides of the equal sign
