Question

A county park charges a $175 fee to rent a pavilion plus $20 per guest.

What is the MEANING of the slope and y-intercept in this situation?

Answer 1

y=$20x+$175

Explanation:

$20x is the slope

$175 is the y-intercept

$20 is the slope because it is asking per person and x is how many people you have for guests. $175 is the y-intercept because you only pay it once.

Hope this helps, if not sorry.
