Question

A dance studio requires each dancer to pay a registration fee plus an hourly rate for all lessons. If the total cost, y, of a dancer's lesson is modeled by the equation y = 25x + 50, how could the y-intercept be interpreted?

Answer 1

Answer:

(0,50)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the total cost of a dancers lesson  modeled by the equation y = 25x + 50, the y intercept occurs at the point where x = 0.

Substitute x = 0 into the expression

y = 25x + 50

y = 25(0) + 50

y = 0+50

y = 50

Hence the y intercept is (0, 50). This shows that the total cost of the dancers lesson registration fee is 50
