Yak Travel Agency arranges trips for climbing Mount Everest. For each trip, they charge an initial fee in addition to \( \$ 0.15 \) for each vertical meter climbed. For instance, the price for climbing all the way to the summit, which is 3500 meters above the base of the mountain, is \( \$ 645 \). Let \( y \) represent the fee (in dollars) of a trip where they climbed \( x \) vertical meters. Complete the equation for the relationship between the fee and vertical distance.
