Nadia rented a stage platform at $410 for 4 days. If she rents the same stage platform for 8 days, she has to pay a total rent of $770. Write an equation in the standard form to represent the total rent (y) that Nadia has to pay for renting the stage platform for x days. (4 points)

so for this you would write 2 different equations?

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

u have to find the slope of (4, 410) and (8, 770) which is -90x + y= 50. :) y = mx + b. to graph that you will plot the two points (4, 410) and (8, 770) and draw a line threw them. It will have a slope of -90 and a y-intercept of 50. y to a f(x) so like f(x) = -90x + 50 hope that helps ! :D

thanks and one more question

Part C: Describe the steps to graph the equation obtained above on the coordinate axes. Mention the labels on the axes and the intervals. (4 points)

would that be what you just said lol

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

so you have to set up a coordinate plane (x-axis representing the number of days, and the y=axes which represents a dollar amount).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that would be the answer?

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

after you made you coordinate plane you have to use the two points you were given to figure out the line that passes through them. (5, 465) and (7, 625)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright:)

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

yes :)

thank you soooo much
