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 information 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.
1. Convert the mixed numbers into improper numbers (-3 2/5 = -17/5 and 8 1/5 = 41/5). Then add 17/5 to both sides when means b=58/5
2. Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of -7/3 (which is -3/7). So n=18
Use this formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^nt, where A is the amount after interest (what you are solving for), P is the amount you invested originally, r is the rate at which it was invested in decimal form, n is the number of times the compounding occurs each year, t is the time in years it is invested. It would look like this: A = 500(1 + [.06/12])^12*5. Do inside the parenthesis first to get 1 + .005 = 1.005. Now raise that to the 60th power (12 times 5 is 60) to get 1.34558. Now multiply that by the 500 out front to get a total amount of $674.43
