Question

chandler's monthly cell phone plan costs $20 plus $5 per gigabyte of data that he uses. what does that look like in slope- intercept form to represents this linear function

Answer 1

The required linear function in slope intercept form is C = 5x + 20

What is equation of line in slope intercept form?

The most general form of equation of line in slope intercept form is given by y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y intercept of the line.

Slope of a line is the tangent of the angle that the line makes with the positive direction of x axis.

If $\theta$  is the angle that the line makes with the positive direction of x axis, then slope (m) is given by

m = $tan \theta$

The distance from the origin to the point where the line cuts the x axis is the x intercept of the line.

The distance from the origin to the point where the line cuts the y axis is the y intercept of the line.

Here,

Let Chandler uses x gigabytes of data and let Chandler's monthly cell phone plan cost be C

Chandler's monthly cell phone plan costs $20 plus $5 per gigabyte of data that he uses

So,

C = 20 + 5x

C = 5x + 20

This is the required linear function in slope intercept form
