Answer:
y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's find the slope. Since the line is horizontal, it's slope has to be 0 (this is because slope = rise/run, there is no "rise" in a horizontal line therefore the slope is 0)
Now, we need to find the y-intercept. This is where the line intercepts the y-axis. Looking at the graph, the line intercepts the axis at (0,-4), therefore the y-intercept is -4.
The equation would be:
y=0x-4
y=-4
Let n represent the amount Colin earned on Sunday.
On Sat. he earned n/2; on Sun. he earned n; and on Friday he earned (1/2)(n/2).
Then n/2 + n + n/4 = $70
Mult. all terms by 4 to eliminate fractions:
2n + 4n + n = $280
7n = $280 => n = $40
Colin earned n/2, or $20, on Saturday; n, or $40, on Sunday; and n/4, or $10, on Friday.
Note that $20 and $40 and $10 add up to $70, as they must.
