A company is paying a local radio station to run its commercials. The cost for running commercials is a one-time campaign fee and also a per-second fee for the air time of each commercial. The cost can be modeled by the equation y = 250 + 100x where x is seconds.
What is the slope and what does it represent? (1 point)

250; it represents the per-second fee of air time

250; it represents the one-time campaign fee

100; it represents the one-time campaign fee

100; it represents the per-second fee of air time

The number that is attached to the "x" is always the slope, and what you want to understand from graphing this is the amount of time it took for the commercial to air. ~I believe you can eliminate the three options to find the correct one now. :3
Good Luck! :D
