Question

Please help me find the y-intercept and slope from these two-word problems. ANd tell me if they're proportional and negative or not.

Answer 1

for the 1st one, m=10 and b=2 because from the word problem it says it starts at 10 which would be 10 on the y axis being where the line would pass through and spending 2 a week would be the slope because he is losing 2 per week its a negative slope so y=10x-2.

for the second one m=48 and b=44 its just like the last one but with different numbers but comment if you want me to explain it but the answer is y=48x-44.
