Answer to Problem 18SGR
The equation in slope intercept form for the total cost C is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Calculation:
The standard form of slope and intercept form of the straight line is
Here m is the slope of the straight line and c is the y- intercept of the equation.
The cost of lift ticket is the intercept of the line on the y- axis while the skiing rental cost is the slope of the equation.
Write the equation for the given situation.
Substitute
The equation of the straight line in the slope and intercept form is
The equation for the total cost can be written as
Therefore, the equation in slope intercept form is
