Answer:

a. The equation is y = 44x

b. The slope is 44, which means savings for a particular week x is 44 times the said week.

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equation that represents the given graph, we need to find the slope. Let us select two points (2, 88), (4, 176)

The slope is:


(176-88)/(4-2)=(88)/(2)=44

The equation is:


y=44x

This is with y-intercept being 0.

The slope of the graph is 44, it means the savings for a particular week x is 44 times the said week.
