Andy rented a trailer for 2 days and a bicycle for 3 days for a total of $145. Jason rented a trailer for 3 days and a bicycle for 2 days for a total of $180. What is the cost to rent a trailer for 1 day and a bicycle for 1 day?

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )

the formula of a slope:

we have the points (-2, 7) and (2, 3). substitute:
