1. Slope = change in Y over the change in x

find two pints, (0,3) and (2,8)

Slope = (8-3) / (2-0) = 5/3 = 2.50

Answer = C.


2. Slope represents cost per mile traveled.

Answer = D


3.  Y intercept is the Y value when x is ), Y is 3 at X = 0

Answer = A


4. Y intercept represents the initial fee.

Answer = F




To find the slope, use the slope formula and find and plug in two points. I will use the points (0, 3) and (2, 8):

[tex]m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{8-3}{2-0}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{5}{2} = 2.5[/tex]


The x-axis is the distance in miles

The y-axis is the cab fare in dollars

The slope is 2.5 or $2.50 per mile, so the slope represents the cost per mile traveled


The y-intercept is the y value when x = 0.

So when x = 0, the y is 3, so the y-intercept is 3.


The y-intercept represents the initial fee before any miles are traveled because the distance is 0, and the cab fare is $3
