Cesar rents a bicycle for a flat rate plus $10 per hour. He models the cost of the rental with the function f(x)=10x+15, where x is the number of hours he rents the bicycle, and f(x)

Question

is the total cost of the bicycle rental, including the flat rate and the hourly fee. What is the flat rate for the bicycle rental?(1 point)
$

Answer 1

The function given is \( f(x) = 10x + 15 \), where \( x \) is the number of hours rented and \( f(x) \) is the total cost.

In this function:

• The term \( 10x \) represents the cost per hour ($10 per hour).
• The constant term \( 15 \) represents the flat rate.

Therefore, the flat rate for the bicycle rental is $15.
