A company rents gym equipment for a fixed amount plus a fee based on the number of days for which the equipment is rented. The table below shows the total charges, y, in dollars, of renting gym equipment for x number of days:

Gym Equipment Rentals
Number of Days
(x)
0, 1, 2
Total Charges (dollars)
(Y)
25, 40, 55

What is the fixed amount charged? (1 point)


$2

$15

$25

$40

Respuesta :

X        Y
0        25
1        40
2        55


y = fixed amount + v(x)
y = 25 + v(0)
y = 25

y = 25 + v(x) 
40 = 25 + v(1)
40 - 25 = v(1)
15 = v(1)
----   -------
 1        1

15 = v

y = 25 + 15x.

The fixed amount charged is $25. The variable amount is $15.

Answer:

The fixed amount that is charged is:

               $ 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The table is given as follows:

   Number of days(x)           Total charge(in dollars)(y)

           0                                         25

            1                                         40

            2                                         55

We know that the fixed amount is the amount of money that is charged irrespective of the days, i.e. it is the initial amount that is charged.

i.e. based on the table is the value of y when x=0

From the table we see that when x=0  , y=25

Also, the equation that determines the relation between x and y is:

                            y=15x+25

    Hence, the fixed amount that is charged is:

                   $ 25
