Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!

1) You have $20 in savings at the bank.Each week,you add $2 to your savings Let y represent the total amount of money you have saved at the end of x weeks.Write an equation to represent this situation, and identify the slope of the equation. What does that number represent?(aka interpret the slope)


Show ALL work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please help


Sagot :

[tex]x-weeks\\y-total\ money\\2x-saving\ every\ week\\\\\boxed{y=2x+20}[/tex]
so at first you have 20
so 
y= money saved so
so each week times 2 +20 =total because
you started with 20 then
x weeks times 2 gives you how much you earned so  
y=2x+20 
slope=2
(slope intercept form=y=mx+b where m=slope)
