determine the initial value and the rate of change in the following description. At a local festival, the entrance fee is $12 per person, and ride tickets cost $2 for every ride.

The initial value is b=□, and the rate of change is m=□

The initial value for this situation is the entrance fee of $12 per person, so b = $12.

The rate of change is the cost of additional ride tickets, which is $2 for every ride, so m = $2.
