A music club charges an initial joining fee of $24.00. The cost per CD is $8.50. The graphshows the cost of belonging to the club as a function of CDs purchased. How will the graphchange if the cost per CD goes up by $1.00?

We can model the problem as a linear equation in the slope-intercept form:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]Where:
m = Slope = Cost per CD = 8.50
x = Number of CDs purchased
y = Total cost
b = y-intercept = Initial joining fee = 24
Therefore, the equation is:
[tex]y=8.50x+24.00[/tex]If the cost per CD (m ) goes up by $1.00:
[tex]y=9.5x+24[/tex]
