Marquis Crane · Answer 1

Sllope intercept form is y=mx+b

m is the slope, b is the y itnercept

so early pay

cost=70 flat rate

x=infinity

the equation would be y=70

deposit pluss

you have to pay an initial one time payment of 15 so

y=mx+15

then 4 dollars per day

4 times number of days

y=4x+15

daily pay is 6 dollars per day so 6 times number of days

y=6x

1.

a. y=70

b. y=4x+15

c. y=4x
