The cost can be written as a linear function, C(x)=0.3x+40, where x is the number of minutes over 500. If the company were to increase the $40 charge to $50, how would the graph of this function change?

Answer:

up 10

Explanation:

The function would change from

C(x) = 0.3x + 40

to

C(x) = 0.3x + 50

The change is only to the y-intercept, so the graph of the function will move up 10.
