1. Jenny is renting a moving truck. She will have to pay a one-time fee for insurance coverage and pay the daily
rate for the truck each day she uses it. The total cost of renting the truck in terms of the number of days the
move will take can be modeled by the equation 𝑦 = 110𝑥 + 85.

What’s the slope? _______ What’s the y-intercept? _______

Match the parts of the equation in column A to their correct representation in column B.

Column A Column B
What does x represent? _____ 1. the one-time fee for insurance coverage
What does y represent? _____ 2. the cost per day for renting the truck; the daily rate
