Maya starts with $300 in her bank account. Each month she spends $40. What is the slope in this equation , and what is the y- intercept ?

Answer 1

Answer: y=300-40x

The y-intercept would be 300

The slope would be -40

Step-by-step explanation:

x=number of months

300 is the amount she starts with

Equation can also be written like so;  y=-40x+300 just like in y=mx+b (slope intercept) form
