A bike rental shop charges a $10 flat booking fee plus $5 per hour. Let x be hours rented (0–7) and y be the total cost in dollars; the graph plots y = 10 + 5x. The y-intercept 10 is the base fee when no hours are used, and the slope 5 means the total increases by $5 for each additional hour. The line therefore models the total amount a customer pays for 0 to 7 hours of rental.
