Answer: w= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation, 5 times a number is 5w, and 35 more, means plus 35. All of this is equal to -10, so the equation will be:

5w+35=-10

Subtract 35 from both sides

5w=-45

Divide by 5 on both sides

w= -9

Hope this helped!

Answer:

(a) $y = 6250x +17850$ --- The function

(b) $y = 49100$ --- The salary in 5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y = 1250x + 22850$

Solving (a): Model the function around (1,24100) and (3,36600)

First, we calculate the slope

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{36600 - 24100}{3 - 1}$

$m = \frac{12500}{2}$

$m = 6250$

The function is then calculated as:

$y = m(x - x_1) + y_1$

$y = 6250(x - 1) + 24100$

$y = 6250x - 6250 + 24100$

$y = 6250x +17850$

Solving (b): Salary in 5 years

Here:

$x = 5$

So:

$y = 6250x +17850$

$y = 6250*5 +17850$

$y = 49100$
