Question

you have $75 saved and plan to save $22 per month for a new cell phone. write a rule for how much you will have saved as a function of the number of months from now. identify the independent and dependent variables. how much will you have saved in 7 months?

Answer 1

Independent variable is x, the month.

Dependent variable is y, money

In 7 months you will have saved $229

Explanation:

22X + 75 = Y

Independent variable = X ( months) and Y is the dependent variable.

Time (X) is always the independent variable.

22 (7) + 75 = $229

Answer 2

You will have saved $229 in 7 months.

Explanation:

To figure out how much you'll have saved for your new cell phone, you can use this formula: Savings = $75 + ($22 * Number of Months). The "Number of Months" is what you choose, and the amount of money you'll save is the result. For instance, if you want to know how much you'll have in 7 months, just replace "Number of Months" with 7 in the formula: Savings = $75 + ($22 * 7), which equals $229. So, you'll have saved $229 after 7 months.
