Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is slightly ambiguous. The problem is, do you find the first 40 hours using 10x and then the second equation using x >40. I don't think so, but it should be made clear. It turns out that the first 40 hours does equal 400 so that you can use the second expression with no worries.
w(53) = 15(53 - 40) + 400
w(53) = 15(13) + 400
w(53) = 195 + 400
w(53) = 595
Answer:
The y-intercept is (0, 5).
Step-by-step explanation:
We find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 13 = 2(x - 4)
y = 2x - 8 + 13
y = 2x + 5 - This is slope-intercept form where the graph passes through the y-axis at y = 5.
