The equation C = 0.20x + 50 gives the cost C in dollars for renting a truck and driving it x miles. This equation is in the form y = mx + b.
Identity the slope and write a sentence to describe the meaning of the slope.

0.20 dollars/mile

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope actually has units. It has the meaning of 20 cents per mile. The units are cents per mile.

But it can also be 0.20 dollars/mile which is probably the way you should interpret it in a math class. That way it matches the units of the 50 which is for certain in dollars.

$9.89

step-by-step explanation:

9.90 = p x .06 x .25 (3/12 changed to a decimal)

9.90 = p x 0.015

9.90 - 0.015 = p

9.89 = p

this linear equation would have just one solution.

step-by-step explanation:

the reason why this would have one solution is that it is an expression with just one variable. since that variable is not raised to a power, it will always have just one solution.
