\bf \textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\ A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~ \begin{cases} a,b=&\stackrel{bases}{parallel}\\ &sides\\ h=&height\\ \cline{1-2} a=&2\\ b=&6\\ A=&24 \end{cases}\implies 24=\cfrac{h(2+6)}{2}\implies 24=\cfrac{h(8)}{2} \\\\\\ 24=4h\implies \cfrac{24}{4}=h\implies 6=h

At an airport, it cost 7 to park for one hour and 5 per hour for each additional hour.Let x represent the number hours parked.wr
kompoz [17]
The cost of parking is an initial cost plus an hourly cost.
The first hour costs $7.
You need a function for the cost of more than 1 hour,
meaning 2, 3, 4, etc. hours.
Each hour after the first hour costs $5.

1 hour: $7
2 hours: $7 + $5                  = 7 + 5 * 1          = 12
3 hours: $7 + $5 + $5          = 7 + 5 * 2          = 17
4 hours: $7 + $5 + $5 + $5  = 7 + 5 * 3          = 22

Notice the pattern above in the middle column.
The number of $5 charges you add is one less than the number of hours.
For 2 hours, you only add one $5 charge.
For 3 hours, you add two $5 charges.

Since the number of hours is x, according to the problem, 1 hour less than the number of hours is x - 1.

The fixed charge is the $7 for the first hour.
Each additional hour is $5, so you multiply 1 less than the number of hours,
x - 1, by 5 and add to 7.

C(x) = 7 + 5(x - 1)

This can be left as it is, or it can be simplified as

C(x) = 7 + 5x - 5

C(x) = 5x + 2

Answer: C(x) = 5x + 2

Check:
For 2 hours: C(2) = 5(2) + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12
For 3 hours: C(3) = 5(3) + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17
For 4 hours: C(3) = 5(4) + 2 = 20 + 2 = 22
Notice that the totals for 2, 3, 4 hours here
are the same as the right column in the table above.

What does the slope of the line represent within the context of my graph
Nata [24]
The slope of the line is the velocity, or rate of change, of y with respect to x.  In other terms, the slope tells you how much y will change for every change in x by one unit.  For example if the slope, which is velocity, is 2.  y will increase by two units every time x increases by one unit.  Your graph is not pictured nor explained, so I cannot give you the specific context beyond the principle that the slope of a line is a constant velocity or rate of change.
