The Hydro water department has a monthly service charge of $13.90 and a volume charge of $1.45 for every 100 cubic feet of water

.
The total monthly cost is equal to the service charge plus the charge for the volume used during the month. If we let x represent the number of cubic feet of water (in hundreds) and y represent the total monthly cost, then we have:
total monthly cost = volume charge + service charge
y = 1.45x + 13.90

If the Johnson family used 200 ft3 more water this month than last month, then they can expect
A. an increase in their water bill of $2.90.

B. an increase in their water bill of $27.80.

C. a decrease in their water bill of $2.90.

D. a decrease in their water bill of $27.80.

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you can disregard the initial $13.90 cost because we're only looking for an INCREASE in price. If the Johnson family used 200 cubic feet MORE of water, we need to multiply 2 * 1.45 which gets us 2.90. We multiply 2 by 1.45 because 200 represented in x is 2, since x is represented in hundreds.

Find the y intercept of the line y+2x-1=0
Anni [7]

Answer:

Y intercept= 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to put this in slope intercept form (y=mx+b) so heres the steps:

y+2x-1=0 (given)

y-1=-2x (subtract 2x from both sides)

y=-2x+1 (add 1 to both sides)

y=-2x+1 is the y=mx+b form

The y intercept is b so your answer is 1
