Equation- Word Problem (standard form)

!!!!!!......
Five friends go scuba diving. They rent a boat for x days and scuba gear for y days. The total spent is $1000.

a) write an equation in standard form that represents the equation

b) interpret the intercepts



THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!

-
250x + 50y = 1000
50(5x + y) = 1000
5x + y = 20

(4, 0) (0, 20)

if they don't rent scuba gear, they could rent the boat for 4 days
if they don't rent a boat, they could rent scuba gear for 20 days

-
1000=250x+50y

subtract 250x
50y=1000-250x

divide by 50
y=20-5x

standard form= y=-5x+20

intercepts= 20
