Problem:
Which statement describes the relationship between x and y in these two equations?
y = 0.5x
y = x + 0.5
A: In y = 0.5x and in y = x + 0.5, the value of y is 0.5 times the value of x.
B:In y = 0.5x the value of y is 0.5 times the value of x, and in
y = x + 0.5 the value of y is 0.5 more than the value of x.
C: In y = 0.5x and in y = x + 0.5, the value of y is 0.5 more than the value of x.
D: In y = 0.5x the value of y is 0.5 more than the value of x, and in y = x + 0.5 the value of y is 0.5 times the value of x.
