Answer:the equation is

y = 3x + 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hours for which the stroller was rented.

Let y represent the total cost of renting the stroller for x hours.

The amusement park charges a $3 rental fee $1.50 per hour to rent a stroller. It means that $1.50 is constant and the total cost vary with number of hours for which it was rented. Therefore, for x hours,

y = 3x + 1.5
