An athletic club has an application fee of $25 and a monthly membership fee of $15. The function f models the total cost of the

membership if the application fee is waived. Write each function and compare the slopes and y-intercepts of the functions. Please explain

Answer:

The slopes are the same and produce parallel lines. The y-intercepts are different where one is 25 due to the $25 application fee and the other is 0 because the fee has been waived.

f(x)=15x

g(x)=15x+25

Step-by-step explanation:

Using slope-intercept form, f(x)=mx+b, we can substitute m=the constant rate of change being charged for x months and b the one time fee paid. This will give us f(x) or the total cost of membership.

<u>With an application fee:</u>

We substitute m=15 since our cost steadily rises each month by 15. This is our slope. But we must also add the one time application fee by substituting b=25. This becomes:

g(x)=15x+25.


<u>Without an application fee:</u>

We substitute m=15 since our cost steadily rises each month by 15. This is our slope. Since our application fee was waved, b=0.

f(x)=15x.


Comparing the two functions on a graph will show parallel lines that do not cross because they share the same m or slope. We would also see that they cross the y-axis at different points due to their different values for b.

Which of the following is correct equation for the trend line in the scatter plot? A. Y= 2/5 x -2 B. Y= 5x-1 C. Y= 5x +5 D. Y= -
Dafna11 [192]

Answer: C. Y = 5x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

    We need to write, or decide on, the equation for the blue line as this line represents the trend line for this scatter plot. We will write this in slope-intercept form. <em>See attached for a visual</em>.

    First, we will find our slope. We will use \frac{rise}{run} for this since we have a graph with clear points. See attached, we count up [5] and then count to the right [1] for a slope of 5.

     -> Slope = 5

   Now, we will find our y-intercept. This is where the line intersects the y-axis. The line hits the y-axis at point (0, 5) giving us a y-intercept of 5.

     -> Y-intercept = 5

   Lastly, we will write our equation and decide on an answer.

y = <em>m</em>x + <em>b</em>

y = (5)x + (5)

Y = 5x + 5

             C. Y = 5x + 5
