A tool rental store charges a flat fee of 500 to rent a chai
A tool rental store charges a flat fee of $5.00 to rent a chain saw, and $6.00 for each day, including the first. Write an equation that expresses the cost y of renting this saw if it is rented for x days. y = 6.00x - 5.00 y = 5.00x + 6.00 y = 6.00x + 5.00 y = 6.00(x + 5.00)
Solution
here the flat fee $5 will be the y-intercept (because we have to pay it just for taking eve for 0 days) y=5
the flat fee $6 will be the slope (because it is directly proportional to the no of days)y=6x
combiningboth the equations gives us the cost of renting the saw for x days
y=6x+5
option c
