Answer:

D. The plumber charges a flat rate of $75.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical intercept is the point where the data intersects the vertical axis.  The vertical axis will be the dependent variable, and the horizontal axis will be the independent variable.  

In this situation, the total cost depends on how many hours the plumber works; this means that the total cost is the dependent variable, going on the vertical axis, and the number of hours is the independent variable, going on the horizontal axis.

The vertical intercept, since it is on the vertical axis, will be where the horizontal axis is 0.  In this situation, this means the cost when the plumber has been there 0 hours; this is the flat-rate fee he charges, $75.

C,

because he checks at 12:00 on the dot or that's what they're implying, so it can't be D

and the mail is always there at noon, so b is out of the question,

What is this -&gt;
Juli2301 [7.4K]
So you want to get all of the unknowns on one side and all the kknowns on the other (this only works with one placeholder)
with equation you must do the same thing to both sides (except divide by 0 which is not allowed and undifined) so that the equation stays equall so

14y-51=187+4y
so add 51 to both sides
14y=238+4y
subtract 4y from both sides
10y=238
divide both sides by 10
y=23.8
(y=17 would make the equation false)

answer is y=23.8
