Question

Adrian and Nicky earn weekly allowances doing chores over the summer.

•Adrian’s mom pays him $5 each week.
•Nicky’s dad pays her $20 at the beginning of the summer and $3 each week.
Give at least one difference between the graphs and the equations for these 2 situations.

Answer 1

Don’t really have something to explain but $3 per one week or 2.333 get that per day :D

Answer 2

To start off, we have a two linear functions to deal with here.

The first starts off at (0,0) and goes linearly up $5 per 1 week or $1.4 per day

The second one starts off at (0,20) and goes linearly up $3 per 1 week or $2.333... per day.

So, the first difference is that Nicky's graph starts higher than Adrian's.

And the second Difference is that Nicky's graph has a lower rate of change than Adrians.

Hope that helped!
