Answer: In the given function the slope (m)=20

It represents the change in price of a community pool membership with respect to the change in number of months.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The price of a community pool membership has a one time sign up fee and monthly fee.

The price can be modeled by the function[tex]y=20x+50[/tex] , where x is the number of months.

We know that the equation of line is  [tex]y=mx+c[/tex] , where m is the slope of the line which shows the rate of change of y with respect to the change of x.

In the given function the slope (m)=20

It represents the change in price of a community pool membership with respect to the change in number of months.
