Number of weeks 0 2 5 8 Total amount of money ($) 42 52 67 82 Write an equation in standard form that represents the relationship between the number of weeks and the total amount of money Marcus will have saved. incorrect answer: −x+5y=42 . expected answer: −5x+y=42 . x+5y=42 x+5y=42 - no response given 5x+y=42 5x+y=42 - no response given −5x+y=42 −5x+y=42 - no response given - correct −x+5y=42

Answer 1

Equation that represents therelationship between the nmber of weeks and total amount of money marcus will have saved is

Y= 5x+42

-5x +y =42

He currently has $42 with planning to save $5 each week. So, $5 per week is the slope and $42 is the y intercept.

Answer 2

the answer the other guy put is WRONG !!!! the real answer is 5x−y=−42 TRUST ME. i took the test and got it correct !!!
