Question

Which description best represents the equation 25x + 50 = y?

Answer 1

see the explanation

Explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

`y=mx+b`

where

m is the slope or unit rate of the linear equation

b is the y-intercept or initial value of the linear equation

In this problem we have

`y=25x+50`

This is the equation of a line in slope intercept form

so

Is a linear equation (the graph is a line)

The slope is positive and is equal to
`m=25`

The y-intercept is the point (0,50) (y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

The value of b is
`b=50` (y-coordinate of the y-intercept)

The x-intercept is the point (-2,0) (x-intercept is the value of x when the value of y is equal to zero)

The linear function is a increasing function (the slope is positive)
