You can rent a paddleboat at Lake Isabel. The cost is $15 for the first hour - then $9 for each hour after that. Use this inform
ation to complete the following: Write an equation in slope intercept form that represents the cost (y) of the rental based on the number of hours (x) you rent it. b) What is the y intercept of your equation? c) What does this mean in the context of the situation? d) What is the slope of your equation? e) What does this number mean in the context of the situation? f) Graph the line that is represented by your equation. Make sure to clearly label the axis. g) How much will it cost to rent the paddleboat for 4 hours? Show how you found your answer algebraically. Also show and explain where this information can be found on your graph. 2) You are helping to plan an awards banquet for your school, and you need to rent tables to seat 180 people. Tables come in two sizes. Small tables seat 4 people and large tables seat 6 people. Write an equation in standard form to represent this situation. Find the x intercept. Explain what this number tells you. Find the y intercept. Explain what this number tells you. Graph the line. 3) If a factory sells its new gadgets for $5 each, it can sell 1050 per month, and if it sells the same gadgets for $9, it will sell 900 per month. What is the slope of the line using these two points of information? Assuming the relationship between price and sales is linear, write an equation to represent this information in point/slope form. Predict the monthly sales of gadgets to the nearest whole number if the price is $12.
