Question

Jason wanted to save his earnings for the newest version of iPad. He already owed his mother $3.00. If he earned $5.00 per week and saved it all, the equation model for this situation would be f(x) = 5x – 3, where f(x) represents total amount saved, and x represents the number of weeks Jason has worked and saved his earnings. Which of the following statements represents the effects of the 5 and 3 on the graph of the linear parent function, f(x) = x?
A. The 5 decreases the rate of change causing the line to be less steep, and the 3 shifts the line down making the y-intercept (0, –3).

B. The 5 increases the rate of change causing the line to be steeper, and the 3 shifts the line up making the y-intercept (0, 3).

C. The 5 increases the rate of change causing the line to be steeper, and the 3 shifts the line down making the y-intercept (0, –3).

D. The 5 decreases the rate of change causing the line to be less steep, and the 3 shifts the line up making the y-intercept (0, 3).

Answer 1

Answer:

C. The 5 increases the rate of change causing the line to be steeper, and the 3 shifts the line down making the y-intercept (0, –3).

Step-by-step explanation:

Because he already starts of negative bc he owes $3, and then he gains$5 every week.

Answer 2

The answer is c.....
