Answer:
- slope: cost per mile
- y-intercept: fixed base cost
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. The problem statement tells you that x is the number of miles driven, and y is the rental cost.
When the number of miles driven is zero, the rental cost is ...
y = 2.25×0 +70
y = 70
The cost of renting the truck is $70 when it isn't driven anywhere. The y-intercept ($70) is the basic, fixed cost of truck rental.
__
If x=1 (1 mile driven), then 2.25 is added to the cost of the truck rental. The slope (2.25) is the cost per mile driven. (That mileage cost is added to the basic rental cost.)

The correct answer is choice B.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
from the diagram
DF = DE + EF , that is
4x + 2 = x + 7 + 7
4x + 2 = x + 14 ( subtract x from both sides )
3x + 2 = 14 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
3x = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 4
Then
DE = x + 7 = 4 + 7 = 11
DF = 4x + 2 = 4(4) + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18
