Question

I will give medal and fan. HELP URGENT

Nicole rented a boat at $325 for 2 days. If she rents the same boat for 5 days, she has to pay a total rent of $892.
Part A:

Write the information above in point slope form:


Write this equation in slope intercept form:


Part B: Write the equation in part A in standard form (2 points)




Part C:

Describe the steps to graph the equation in Part A.

What is the label of the x-axis?

What is the label of the y-axis?

What is the slope?

What is the y- intercept?

What is the x-intercept?

Answer 1

We can treat the cost as the y-value and the number of days as the x-value.
We are given two points. when x = 2, y = $325; when x = 5, y = $892
Slope = \(\Large \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{892-325}{5-2} =
\frac{567}{3} = 189\)
Point Slope form: \(y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\)

\(y - 325 = 189(x-2)\)

Answer 2

ok sorry its a lot of work for the problem

Answer 3

y - 325 = 189(x - 2)
y - 325 = 189x - 378
y = 189x - 378 + 325
y = 189x - 53 is the slope-intercept form.

Answer 4

B)
y = 189x - 53
53 + y = 189x
53 = 189x - y
189x - y = 53 is the standard form.

Answer 5

Part C: Describe the steps to graph the equation in Part A.
Cost is chosen as the y-value and the number of days is the x-value.
We are given two points: (2, 325) and (5, 892).
We choose the x-scale as 1 unit = 1 day.
We choose the y-scale as 1 unit = $100.
We plot the two points on the graph paper.
We draw a straight line through the two points for positive x and positive y values.

What is the label of the x-axis? Days

What is the label of the y-axis? Cost in Dollars

What is the slope? 189

What is the y- intercept? y = 189x - 53. Put x = 0: y = -53.
So the y-intercept is -53.

What is the x-intercept? y = 189x - 53. Put y = 0: 0 = 189x - 53.
x = 53/189
So the y-intercept is 53/189.

Answer 6

thank you so so so so much you're the best
I would have been up till midnight trying to figure this out thank you

Answer 7

You are welcome.

Answer 8

The last line should be: The x-intercept is 53/189 (not y-intercept).
