40 dollars
Which of the following equations is in slope-intercept form for this example?
A moving truck costs 40 dollars to rent and an additional 15 dollars for every 10 miles it is driven.
40=10x+15y
y=23x+40
y=10x+15
y=23x
Before graphing this situation, would it be helpful for you to make a table of values? Why or why not?
A moving truck costs 40 dollars to rent and an additional 15 dollars for every 10 miles it is driven.
No, this example is continuous and we know slope intercept form.
No, I feel comfortable visualizing graphs without a table.
Yes, this example is discrete and each point needs to be plotted separately.
Yes, tables help me learn.
Select the graph that represents the following example:
A moving truck costs 40 dollars to rent and an additional 15 dollars for every 10 miles it is driven.
