    It would be easier to take the. 25 (twenty-five cents) times the nine and add $1 to the answer of that and that's how much a nine year old would cost to eat there.

    Y =.25x + 1

    if the child is nine, then that's what you replace x with.

    y = (.25 x 9) + 1

    .25 x 9 = 2.25

    y = 2.25 + 1

    2.25 + 1 = 3.25

    y = 3.25

    the price for the nine year old child is $3.25
