36. CCSS REASONING A company offers premium cable for $39.95 per month plus a one-time setup fee. The total
cost for setup and 6 months of service is $264.70.
a. Write an equation in point-slope form to find the total price y for any number of months x. (Hint: The point (6,
264.70) is a solution to the equation.)
b. Write the equation in slope-intercept form.
c. What is the setup fee?
ANSWER:
a. y − 264.70 = 39.95(x − 6)
b. y = 39.95x + 25
c. $25
