Answer:
Let the additional weight that can be added be = x
Current weight of the bag = 38 pounds
Total weight can be = 50 pounds
The equation becomes:
38+x < or equal 50
x < or equal 50-38=12
Hence, a weight of 12 pounds cab be added to the current wight.

Desmos is a great resource to help you understand the concept.
A) Variables:
X = number of weeks she puts money into the account.
Y = total amount in account after x weeks.
B) m would be the amount she puts in per week, b is the starting amount she has in the account
Y = 5x + 40
C) replace x with the x values in the cart and solve for y:
O : y = 40. Coordinates (0,40)
1: Y = 45. (1,45)
2: 50, (2,50)
3: 55, (3,55)
4: 60, (4,60)
D) make the graph using the above points
E) y intercept is when x is 0, which is 40. This was the starting value of how much money was saved.
It depends on how many bags she has! Then subtract that
