Question

Tina owns a florist shop. She charges 2.99 cents for each flower plus a delivery fee of 5. 

y=_____________, only type what goes in the blank.

Answer 1

Charges per flower delivered by Tina is, y= 2.99 (x) + 5

Explanation:

Given:

Tina's charges per flower = 2.99 cents

Delivery charged by Tina = 5 units or 5$

We have fill the blank in terms of 'y'.

We know slope intercept form that is : y = m(x)+b

So here we have to fill numbers according to the slope intercept form.

Let the numbers of flowers sold by Tina be 'x'.

Here slope (m) will be the charge of each flower charged by the florist.

The delivery charge is the fixed rate so its the constant value and will be treated equivalent to y-intercept or b values.

Arranging our values:

`m=2.99` cents ,
`b=5\$`

Then the slope-intercept form :

⇒
`y=m(x)+b`

⇒
`y= 2.99(x) + 5`

We have to type only that goes in the blank and that is 2.99(x) +5.

y = 2.99(x) + 5 is our final answer.
