Question

1) Melissa will participate in a charity walkathon. Her mother will donate $10 for Melissa's

Answer 1

Answer:

$40

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form i equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

y is the amount of her mother's donation

x is the number of miles that Melissa walks

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

In this problem

The slope is

$m=\ 2\ per\ mile$

The y-intercept is

$b=\ 10$

substitute

$y=2x+10$

so

For x=15 miles

substitute

$y=2(15)+10=\ 40$
