Question

11

Write an equation in slope-intercept form that models the situation. In order to go bowling,
you must pay a one-time fee of $10 for rental shoes, and then pay $3 per game. Let y
represent the total cost of bowling after playing x games. (5 Points)
y = - 10x + 3
y = 10x + 3
y = 10x - 3
y=-3x + 10
y = 3x + 10

Answer 1

y=3x+10

Explanation:

The formula for an equation in slope-intercept is y=mx+b. m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

The 3 is the slope because it says that you have to pay that amount per game so that is the rate. 10 is the y-int because it says that you have to pay a one-time fee and a y-intercept is just once and isn't a rate.

Answer 2

y = 3x + 10

$3 times x number of games, then add $10 for rental shoes.
