Jay pays a flat fee each month for basic cable service. He also pays $3.50 for each movie he orders during the month. Last month, he ordered 5 movies and his total bill came to $54. Write an equation in point-slope form that represents the total bill, y, in terms of the number of movies, x.

Respuesta :

Answer:

y=f+3.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total bill be y

and let the number of movies be x

let the flat fee be f

given that he pay $3.5 per movie

and his total bill is  $54

The expression is given bellow for his total bill

y=f+3.5x

For 5 movies his total bill is $54

54=f+3.5(5)

54=f+17.5

54-17.5=f

f=36.5

Therefore the flat fee is $36.5
