Question

I WILL GIVE THE BRAINLIEST
Jack works after school. each day he earns a set amount, plus an hourly wage. the following table represents a linear function f jack can use to determine to his pay.
hours: 1, 2, 3 | Pay: 18, 28, 38
SLOPE is 10.
Using the slope, find the y-intercept and write the function.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The y intercept is (0, 8). The equation of the function is f(x) = 10x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that after 1 hour of work, Jack will make 18 dollars and the slope is 10, subtract 10 dollars from 18 dollars to find his set amount, or y-intercept.

18 - 10 = 8 dollars.

Now that we have the m and b values, we can create our equation.

The equation in standard form is f(x) = mx +b, where m = the slope and b = the y-intercept. Plug our values in and the equation will be f(x) = 10x + 8. You can test if this is correct by plugging in x values from the table and seeing if your calculated value correctly corresponds to the given y value in the table.
