The answer would be C since 3.00 would be the initial cost and 5 would be the hourly rate, with x being the amount of hours the car is in the parking lot.

The answer is C. In this situation, slope means the rate of change of the cost of parking in the lot is 5 dollar per hour.

What is slope?

Slope is calculated by finding the ratio of the "vertical change" to the "horizontal change" between (any) two distinct points on a line. That means the change in y due to change in x.

In an equation, y = mx + c, slope is m.
