Step-by-step explanation:
A. Gasoline fill-up fee = $4.50
Cost per hour = $40
Average cost = C
Number of hours the scootcar is rented = h
Cost per h hours = $40h
Total cost = $40h + $4.50
Hence,
C = 40h+4.5
B. To plot the graph of the function, find h- and C- intercepts.
When h = 0, then C = 4.5, and we have point (0,4.5)
When C = 0, then 0 = 40h + 4.5, h = -45/400 = -0.1125, and we have point (-0.1125,0)
Plot these two points and connect them with a straight line.
Graph is attached, but you should take only that part of the graph that corresponds to points with h > 0, because the number of hours cannot be negative
Slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+b.
Where m= slope and b= y-intercept.
First step is to compare the given equation y=35x+8 with the above equation to get the value of m.
After comparing the two equations we will get m=35.
Slope of paralle lines always equal which means slope of a line which is parallel to the above line will also be 35.
Now the line is passing through (-10,4).
Point slope form of a line is :
Next step is to plug in m=35, x1=-10 and y1=4 in the above equation. So,
y-4=35(x-(-10)
y-4=35(x+10)
y-4=35x+350
y=35x+350+4
y=35x+354.
So, the equation of the line is y=35x+354.
