Question

Camden accepted a new job at a company with a contract guaranteeing annual raises. Camden's salary after working for nn years can be determined using the equation S=2000n+55000.S=2000n+55000. What is the slope of the equation and what is its interpretation in the context of the problem?

Answer 1

2000

Explanation:

Given the equation :

S=2000n+55000

Comparing the equation given to the standard linear equation formula :

y = mx + c

Where ; c = intercept ; m = slope ; y = dependent variable and x = independent variable

From The comparison, the slope of the equation given = 2000.

According to the context, the slope means that Camden salary will increase by 2000 each year.
