Solve the problem.In 1985, in the town of Appleby, 22.8% of Hispanics were overweight, increasing by an average of 0.47% per year. In 1985, in the town of Appleby, 0.17% of whites were overweight, increasing by an average of 29.2% per year. Write a function that models the percentage, y, of Hispanics who are overweight x years after 1985. Write a function that models the percentage, y, of whites who are overweight x years after 1985.
A. Hispanics: y + 0.47x = 22.8
Whites: y + 29.2x = 0.17
B. Hispanics: y = 0.47x + 22.8
Whites: y = 29.2x + 0.17
C. Hispanics: y = 22.8x + 0.47
Whites: y = 0.17x + 29.2
D. Hispanics: y = 23.27x
Whites: y = 29.37x
