Respuesta :

I was wrong

I repeated the problem.

This is what I did.

I took some points from the graph and I evaluated the equations (the x value) to optain the "y" and I'm compared the result of the equation with the data of the points, for example

Equation 1

y = 500x + 34570

Data from the graph: (1, 35250)

y = 500(1) + 34570

y = 35070

Comparing 35070 is close to 35250

other point: (2, 35600)

y = 500x + 34570

y = 500(2) + 34570

y = 35570

Comparing

35570 is close to 35600

final point: (6, 37450)

y = 500(6) + 34570

y = 3000 ´+ 34570

y = 37570

Comparing

37570 is close to 37450

I repeated this process with the three equations given, and the one that showed the closest values was the first one.

So, the solution is the first choice
