Question

For babysitting, Nicole charges a flat fee of $3, plus $5 per hour. Find the slope and y-intercept of the data

Answer 1

Answer:

slope: 5

y-intercept: 3

therefore y=5x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is the value that is changing; as time passes the price increases by $5 per hour

the y-intercept is where the function crosses the y-axis (when x is 0); so when no time has passed.

Answer 2

Y=5x+3 because x is the paid per hour. Per hour its $5. So that will be “mx”. then $3 is an additional fee so that will be “b”. Y=mx+b. Y=5x+3
