A hotel business center charges $40 per hour to rent a computer plus a $65 security deposit. The total rental charge is represented by f(X)=40+65. How would the equation change if the business center increased the security deposit by $15?

Answer: It is Yes

Explanation:

1. Since y = 40x + 65 was the original equation, when added 15 dollars to the security deposit, the equation changed by adding 15 into 65, changing it's y-int.
