  4.   A T-shirt company charges a design fee of $25 and then sells the shirts for $10 each. The total cost y can be represented by the equation y = 10x + 25, where x represents the number of T-shirts. The graph of the equation is shown. Describe what the slope and y-intercept represent.
   
    A. The slope represents the one-time design charge. The y-intercept represents the cost per T-shirt.
    B. The slope represents the cost per T-shirt. The y-intercept represents the one-time design charge.
    C. The slope represents the number of T-shirts. The y-intercept represents the cost per T-shirt.
    D. The slope represents the total cost of the T-shirts. The y-intercept represents the one-time design charge.
    Hint

  5.   A long-distance phone company charges $5 per month and $0.10 per minute. The total bill y for the month can be represented by the equation y = 0.10x + 5. The graph of the equation is shown. Describe what the slope and y-intercept represent.
   
    A. The slope resents the number of minutes used. The y-intercept represents the monthly charge.
    B. The slope represents the monthly charge. The y-intercept represents the cost per minute.
    C. The slope represents the cost per minute. The y-intercept represents the monthly charge.
    D. The slope represents the total bill. The y-intercept represents the cost per minute.
