Question

Patrick had $10. Then, he saved $3.75 each week for 5 weeks. How much money does he have
now?

Answer 1

Answer: Patrick has 28.75 after 5 weeks.

Explanation:

So he starts with 10. That would be our y-intercept. That means that 3.75 is the slope because he saves that amount of money each week. So the equation would be y = 3.75x + 10.

The x represents the number of weeks (5), so we will plug that into the equation (y = 3.75(5) + 10).

Multiply 5 and 3.75 to get 18.75

Add 10 to get 28.75

therefore the answer is 28.75

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation

$3.75x5=18.75

18.75+10=$28.75
