PLEASE HELP AND SHOW WORK PLEASEEE!!!!!

An odometer shows that a car has traveled 41,000 miles by January 1, 2020. The car travels 19,000 miles each year. Write an
equation that represents the number y of miles on the car's odometer x years after 2020.
y =

Answer 1

The odometer shows that the car has traveled 41,000 miles by January 1, 2020, so we can use this as the starting point (x = 0) for our equation. We also know that the car travels 19,000 miles each year.

We can use this information to write an equation for the number of miles on the car's odometer x years after 2020.

The equation would be : y = 41,000 + (19,000 * x)

Where y represents the number of miles on the car's odometer and x represents the number of years after 2020.

The y is the number of miles at the odometer and x is the number of years passed from 2020.

This equation gives the number of miles on the car's odometer x years after 2020, whenever we have to know the number of miles on the odometer we just need to plug in the number of years passed in the equation.
