25 -------- $405

30 -------- $480

Solving (a): Who charges the greater flat fee?

We have that the flat fee of Rose is:

For Angel, we need to determine the equation of the given table

Start by calculating the slope (m) of the table

Where x and y represent any two corresponding values of the guests and the charges.

Next, we calculate the equation using:

Where

Add 180 to both sides

From the equation above:

The slope = 15 --- This represents the hourly rate

and

y intercept = 30 --- This represents the flat fee
