Answer:

linear function: y = -7x + 150

Explanation:

Scott's situation represents a linear function because he is spending $7 each day on lunch. His initial amount in his bank account is $150 and each day he spends the same rate on lunch, $7. So, for any amount of days - represented by 'x' in the equation, you would multiply by -7 (since he is spending) and subtract this amount from his original amount of $150. In this equation, 'y' is equal to his total after 'x' amount of days.
