Complete Question
On a two week job, a repairman works a total of 70 hours. He charges $75 plus $40 per hour. An equation shows the relationship where x is the number of hours and y is the total fee. Write the equation. What is the slope and y-intercept?
Answer:
a)Write the equation.
y = 40x + 75
b) What is the slope and y-intercept?
The slope = 40
y - Intercept = 75
Step-by-step explanation:
On a two week job a repairman works a total of 70 hours. He charges 75$ plus 40$ per hour.
The equation shows this realationship where x is the number of hours and y is the total fee is given using the equation of a straight line which is given as:
y = mx + c
Where m = Slope
c = y intercept
Applying this equation to our question , we have:
y= 40x + 75
The slope = m = 40
y-intercept = c = 75
