The cost of renting a boat at a lake is $35 per hour plus $5 for life jackets. Write an • equation in slope-intercept form that can be used to calculate the total amount you would pay for
renting a boat. (assume only you need a life jacket)

y = 35x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b

m is the slope, b is the constant, or y-intercept.

In this case, 5 is our constant. You pay a one-time fee of $5 for a life jacket. This price doesn't change nor do you have to pay it again, so this is your constant.

35 is our slope. 35 represents the $35 you pay for each hour with the boat. This is our slope because it will change overtime, based on x, or the number of hours you are renting the boat.

y is the total cost, since you have to add up $35 times the number of hours you are renting, plus the $5 for the life jacket.

f(x) is going down by 4

(its either that or its going left by 4)

x=half
