Karma was given some birthday money. She puts money in an account. Every month after that, she deposits the same amount of money. The equation that models this situation is y=75x+60, where y is the amount of money in the account and x is the number of deposits. What does the y-intercept mean in this situation

y represents the amount in the bank account after 7 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let karma gets x money on his birthday.

He has 60 in his account initially

He deposits teh same money for the seven months

So, the money he has after the seven months is 7 x + 60  

According to the question,

y =7 x + 60

It shows that the amount after seven months is y.  

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
