Question

I NEED THIS FAST! I WILL PUT BRAINIEST IF IT IS CORRECT A group of workers is harvesting berries at a constant rate. An equation that represents the number of baskets of berries the workers picked over a period of time, in hours, is y = 5x + 10. (a) What are the slope and the y-intercept for the equation that represents the number of baskets of berries the workers picked over a period of time? (b) What are the rate of change and the initial amount? Explain the meaning of the rate of change and the initial amount for the situation. (c) Use graph paper to draw a graph representing the situation. Label the axes appropriately.

Answer 1

a) the slope of the equation is 5, the y intercept is 10. 
b) the rate of change is just the slope, so 5 but it means that they are picking 5 berries over that period of time. the initial amount is just the y intercept which is 10. this is just how many berries you start with.
c)
