Question

Mo has $90.00 already saved and has a job making $8.00 per hour. Merv already has $50.00 saved and has a job making $10.00 per hour.
Put that information together and write the slope intercept equation that models Mo’s story

Answer 1

Let x represent the number of hours that Mo works.
The amount of money Mo makes from her job can be represented by the equation y = 8x.
The total amount of money that Mo has can be represented by the equation y = 8x + 90.

Therefore, the slope-intercept equation that models Mo's story is:
y = 8x + 90
