The Jackson Family started a small business. The equation y=5.9x-19.5 models the business's cash value, in thousands of dollars, X years after they started their business.

Which statement best explains what the y-intercept of the equation means?
A. The Jackson's lost $19,500 every year they were in business.

B. The Jackson's lost $19,500 the first year they were in business.

C. The Jackson's started their business with a debt of $19,500.

D. The Jackson's lost $19,500 every 5.9 years.

Which Correlation is most likely a causation?

A. The positive Correlation between the number of skiers and snowboarders on a mountain.

B. The positive Correlation between the number of typing classes a student takes and the number of words per minute the student can type.

C. The positive Correlation between the sales of cell phones and the sales of televisions in a store.

D. The positive Correlation between the number of shopping carts at a store and the number of cash registers in the store.

According to the information they earn 5.9 of something "every payday" and the y int is them starting out. The only logical answer is C for the first question because every other answer involves slope and not starting value.

For the second one it is B i think since causation means cause to effect or ratio. They are the only values that make since because they are related to eachother.

Sorry for the bad spelling if you need any more information please ask in comments :)
