Respuesta :

you would first plug the 120 minutes into the x’s position, bc the x represents the # of minutes flying as said, so your equation would be “y=2,426 - 8(120)”, now we follow PEMDAS and multiply first, leaving our equation to “y=2,426 - 960”, now subtract and youll be left with “y=1,466” , so B :)
