I NEED HELP QUICKLY PLEASE. POSSIBLY GIVING BRAINLIEST. A computer technician charges a flat rate for home visits plus $ 55 per hour. The technician bills $190 for a 2-hour home visit to install a new hard drive. The equation y − 190 = 55(x − 2) gives the total amount y the technician charges for x hours of work.

The equation in slope-intercept form is y = 55x + 80.

What does the y-intercept in this equation represent?

a. the rate of change

b. the total cost

c. the flat rate

IT IS NOT A. I TRIED AND GOT IT WRONG.
