The fixed rental fee is $2 and a late fee of $0.25 per day is charged.

Linear equation

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the slope of the  line (rate of change) and b is the initial value of y.

Let y represent the total charge after x days pass the due date.

Given that:

y = 0.25x + 2

Hence the fixed rental fee is $2 and a late fee of $0.25 per day is charged.
