Sample Answer: No, Ingrid is incorrect. The initial value in the scenario is 170 feet, which represents the y − intercept. Receding 4 feet in the scenario represents the rate of change, which is the slope. In slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m represents slope and b represents the y−intercept, so the correct equation is y = −4x + 170.
