The Hawks are starting a babysitting business. They charge an initial deposit of $20

and a rate of $3 an hour. A linear model is written where x is the number of hours
and y is the total cost of the service.

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation: So first you have to make this word problem into a equation into standard form so 20 is our (y) because that is the additional charge but our slope is 3 because that is what they charge per hr **when they say (per) usually the member with it is the slope** (sry I’m not the best explainer)
