Question

Ms. Thompson is grading math tests. She is giving everyone

that took the test a 10-point bonus. Each correct answer is
worth 5 points. Write an equation in slope-intercept form
that represents the scores on the tests. (Lesson 5.1)

Answer 1

The y-intercept is 10, since everyone that the test is given 10 points. The slope is 5x, since the teacher gives 5 points for each correct answer. So the equation is y = 5x + 10
