y = amount saved in dollars

x = months

y = 20 + 10x

Ans: y = 20 + 10x

Answer:

y = amount saved in dollars

x = months

Since the student already has $20 dollars saved (20) and plans to save $10 per month (10x), the equation so far is y = 20 + 10x.

You can use this to solve questions based of the equation/situation by filling in any numbers you are given where the variables are.

Hope this helps! :)
