Part A: Maria rented a coat at $285 for 3 days. If she rents the same coat for 6 days, she has to pay a total rent of $510. Write an equation in the standard form to represent the total rent (y) that Maria has to pay for renting the coat for x days. (4 points)

Part B: Write the equation obtained in Part A using function notation.(2 points)

Part C Describe the steps to graph the equation obtained above on the coordinate axes. Mention the labels on the axes and the intervals. (4 points)

Part a y=95x

Part b 285=95•3

Part c ?

Hope I helped sorry I don't know how to do the last one!

Answer: A) y=75x+60

B)
f(x)=75x+60

C) The point on axes are (0,60) and (-0.8,0)

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Rented price of coat for 3 days = $285

Rented price of coat for 6 days = $510

Let x be the number of days.

Let y be the total rent.

So, equation of line would be


y-y_0=(y_1-y_0)/(x_1-x_0)(x-x_0)\\\\y-285=(510-285)/(6-3)(x-3)\\\\y-285=(225)/(3)(x-3)\\\\y-285=75(x-3)\\\\y-285=75x-225\\\\y=75x-225+285\\\\y=75x+60

B) equation using function notation is given by


f(x)=75x+60

C) Let x= 0

Then, f(x)= 60 and

let y = 0

0=75x+60


x=(-60)/(75)=-0.8

So, the point on axes are (0,60) and (-0.8,0)
