The cost of renting a sailboat at a lake is $20 per hour plus $14 for lifejackets. Write an equation in slope-intercept form that can be used to calculate the total amount you would pay for using this sailboat.

y=20x+14, where:

y is the total amount you would pay for using the sailboat

x is the number of hours the sailboat is used

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation in slope-intercept form is set up as y=mx+b. From the information provided, the equation would indicate that the cost of renting the boat would be equal to the price per hour for the number of hours plus the cost of lifejackets and the equation in slope-intercept form that can be used is:

y=20x+14, where:

y is the total amount you would pay for using the sailboat

x is the number of hours the sailboat is used

the roots are ( x-intercepts) x=-0.5,x=1,x=3

the y-intercept is the point (0,3)
