Question

Desk 4

Christopher had $125 in his savings account
to buy a used car. He used the equation
A = 50w + 125 to determine the amount in
his savings, A, after depositing the same
amount in his account every week, W.
• What is the slope of the line?
• What does the slope represent in the
context of the problem?

the slope in this equation is 50

using the formula y = mx + b with m being the slope we can tell that 50 is where the m is

this means that every week he deposits $50
