Carly and Simon are renting formal clothes for a wedding.

They found a rental company that charges a fixed fee of $100 plus an additional fee of $40 per hour.

If this information was put into an equation, which amount would represent the y-intercept?

Answer (3)

the equation is y=40/1+100 so the y-intercept is 100

The equation for this problem would be Y=40x + 100 The y-intercept would be the 100

In the context of Carly and Simon renting clothes, the equation representing their total cost is y = 100 + 40 x . The y-intercept, representing the cost when no time has passed, is $100. This fixed fee of $100 is charged even if they don't rent the items for any hour.
