Aren Talcar company charges $55 per day to rent a small car after an initial deposit of $35. Derive an equation to calculate the total cost for renting a car from the company. How much would it cost to rent a car for a week

y = 55x + 35

35 being the y - intercept

55 being the slope

y being the total cost

~~

For a week??


y = 55(7) + 35

Since there is 7 days in a week we will substitute the 7 for x.


y = 420

~~

I hope that helps you out!!

Any more questions, please feel free to ask me and I will gladly help you out!!
