You have $20 in savings at the bank. Each week, you add $2 to your savings. Let [tex]y[/tex] represent the total amount of money you have saved at the end of [tex]x[/tex] weeks.

1. Write an equation to represent this situation.
2. Identify the slope of the equation and interpret what the slope represents.

Show all work.

so at first you have 20 so y= money saved so so each week times 2 +20 =total because you started with 20 then x weeks times 2 gives you how much you earned so y=2x+20 slope=2 (slope intercept form=y=mx+b where m=slope)

The equation representing the savings is y = 2 x + 20 , where y is the total savings after x weeks. The slope of the equation is 2, indicating that for every week, the savings increase by $2. This reflects a positive linear relationship between time and total savings.
