Which Airline is Best?
You wish to visit a new amusement park in a different state. There are many airlines which travel to the area; however, none of them goes directly to the town. Each airline uses a different algebraic equation to set up its flight plan. You need to choose two airlines and use the corresponding equation to determine which airline would come the closest to the amusement park. After you land, you will need to rent a car to drive the remainder of the distance. Since you do not want to drive too far, find which airline you should use. Use graph paper to plot the two lines for each flight plan you chose. Write a letter to your travel agent explaining which airline you chose and explain the reasoning.
