Answer 2

Answer:

My Sky Airline gives more points, 33,350 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Flyaway Airline

5 points for every mile flown plus a bonus of 20 points for every trip over 500 miles.

My Sky Airline

7 points for every mile flown plus a bonus of 30 points for each trip.

The itinerary has a total of 4,730 miles and 8 trips.

So, Flyaway Airline would give

$5 \times 4730=23650$

There are 5 tripes over 500 miles, so

$20 \times 5 =100$

Therefore, Flyaway Airline gives a total of 23,750 points.

On the other hand, My Sky Airline would give

$7 \times 4730 = 33110$

There are 8 total trips, so

$30 \times 8 = 240$

Therefore, My Sky Airline would give a total of 33,350 points.

So, with that itinerary, My Sky Airline gives more points, 33,350 points.
