Respuesta :

Answer:

y = 15 + 7.50x

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, At a park, the cost to rent a bike has an initial fee of $15.00 plus $7.50 per hour.

Let the number of hours is x and the total cost is y.

When the bike is rented for x hours, its cost will be 7.50x.

Total cost (y) in terms of number of hours is given by :

y = 15 + 7.50x

Hence, this is the required equation.
