What is the change per week in the account and what is the starting amount of money in the account 750+20x=y

Question

Y represents the total amount of money in the account

X represents the number of weeks he's been putting the money in the account

Suppose that X and Y are related in the equation

Answer 1

750+20x=y

 

 

y=20x + 750

 

compare this with slope intercept form

 

y=mx+b

 

slope =m,y intercept =b

 

slope represent change per week

 

slope = 20 

 

change per week=20

starting amount of money=y intercept

 

starting amount of money=750
