Right answers only plz i have 7 min to complete this

Answer 1

We are given that Kristine spends $20 and saves the rest each time she get paid.

We can use slope-intercept form y=mx+b to represent the equation.

Where x represents the amount Kristine earns and y represents the amount she saves.

Kristine spends $20. Therefore b= -20.

Plugging mx as just x and b=-20.

y = x-20.

If we plug y=0, we get

0 = x-20

x=20.

We can see in 4th option we have x-intercept =20.

Therefore, correct option is 4th option.
