I can’t see the graph you’re using. Please either upload the image or tell me two clear points on the line (for example (0, y) and (x2, y2)).
If you want to do it yourself, here’s how to read it:
- The first dropdown (the flat amount) is the y‑intercept: the dollar amount at day 0 (the value of the graph where x = 0).
- The second dropdown (the amount per day) is the slope: the change in dollars divided by the change in days (rise/run). Pick two points on the line, compute (change in money)/(change in days), and use that value with “per day.”
Example: if the graph goes through (0, \$5) and (2, \$11), the student charges \$5 plus an additional \$3 per day because slope = (11 − 5)/(2 − 0) = 3.
Send the image or two points and I’ll give the exact answers.
