A school system is reducing the amount of dumpster loads of trash removed each week. In week 5, there were 40 dumpster loads of

waste removed. In week 10, there were 30 dumpster loads removed. Assume that the reduction in the amount of waste each week is linear. Write an equation in function form to show the amount of trash removed each week. A f(x) = −2x + 40. B f(x) = 2x + 40 C f(x) = −2x + 50 D f(x) = 2x + 50

Answer:

The answer is A f(x) = -2x + 40

Step-by-step explanation:

it has a negative 2 because the dumps are decreasing by 2 every week and x is the amount of weeks and + 40 because that is the amount you started with.
