Step-by-step explanation:
Part A
We will use the slope intercept form of the line and then convert later.
Equation
y = mx + b is the general form
Givens
Two data points
(4,180)
(9,325)
Solution
325 = 9x + b
<u>180 = 4x + b</u> Subtract
145 = 5x Divide by 5
145/5 = 5x/5 Do the division
29 = x This represents the cost / day
180 = 4x + b Substitute x = 29 to find b
180 = 4*29 + b Combine
180 = 116 + b Subtract 116 from both sides.
180 - 116 = b
64 = b
Solution for y = mx + b
y = 29x + 64
In Standard form this is
- 29x + y = 64 But the first number must be plus
29x - y = - 64 <<<< Answer A
Part B
y = 29x + 64
f(x) = 29x + 64
Part C
The graph is shown below. Various points are filled in using y = 29x + 64. The y intercept is (0,64) which is labeled. Let x = 1 , 2, 3, 4, ... 10 (which is arbitrary). This may be more easily done on a spreadsheet if you know how to use one to make graphs.
You should start with an equation.
The 'x' represents the week.
so now, we have to subtract 125 from the total amount which is 245.
now we have
to find 'x', we must divide 15 on each side
we are now left with
that means Sierra will have 8 weeks until she has enough money to buy the bike
