The initial flat rate that bike rental service charges is $19.70

The additonal charges per hour is $5.60.

Let x be the number of hour.

The equation formed is

[tex]19.70+5.60x=y[/tex]

The y-intercept is determined by substituting x=0.

[tex]19.70+0=y[/tex]

Hence the y -intercept is 19.70 dollar.
