PLEASE HELP A GIRL OUT UwU Explain how to write a linear equation from a word problem in the slope-intercept form. Explain in detail what words you are looking for in the problem. Use complete sentences. Must inlclude capital letters and punctuation where needed.

It depends on the problem, but here's an example.

Let's say you earn $20 an hour and you already have $100 in the bank. If you work x hours, then you'll have 20x additional dollars on top of the $100 you already have. So in total you have y = 20x+100 dollars

x = number of hours worked

y = total amount of money

This does not take into account taxes or other kinds of fees/deductions from your paycheck.

Comparing y = 20x+100 with y = mx+b, the slope is m = 20 and the y intercept is b = 100.

The slope tells us how fast the money increases (since it's the rate of change). In this case, slope = rise/run = 20/1 meaning that for each hour, the money goes up by $20.

The y intercept is the starting value which in this case is $100. If you worked x = 0 hours, then you'll still have that $100.

trapezoid

step-by-step explanation:

first i plotted all my points on a grid graph

i made sure all of them were in the correct quadrant

then i saw it was a trapezoid or a quadrilateral
