Answer:

y = 5x + 92

y = 9x + 27

Explanation:

Slope intercept form is written as y = mx + b, and you know that y represents "quects" and x represents months.

For farmer Rew, b would be 92 because that is how many "quects" he started off with. m would be 5 because that is how many new "quects" he gets every month. (y = 5x + 92)

For farmer Joogh, b would be 27 because she started off with 27 "quects." m would be 9 because she gets 9 new "quects" every month. (y = 9x + 27)
