Question

The cost of a service call to fix a washing machine can be expressed by the linear function y = 45x + 35, where y represents the total cost and x represents the number of hours it takes to fix the machine. What does the slope represent?
the cost for each hour it takes to repair the machine
the cost for coming to look at the machine
the total cost for fixing the washing machine
the amount of time that it takes to arrive at the home to make the repairs

Answer 1

The answer would be A. The cost for each hour it takes to repair the machine. In the equation 35 would represent the flat fee, and 45 would represent the cost for each hour. You can verify because if you plug in 1, you would get $45 for 1 hour, if you plug in 2, you would get $90 for 2 hours and so on. Hope this helps! :D.
