To determine the slope and y-intercept of the linear relationship between the number of weeks Helen saves money (x) and the total amount in her savings account (y), let's analyze the situation.
1. **Slope (m)**: The slope represents how much money is added to her savings account each week. Since Helen adds $10 each week, the slope is **10**.
2. **Y-intercept (b)**: The y-intercept represents the amount in her savings account when x = 0 (at the start, before she has saved any weeks). Helen already had $50 in her account, so the y-intercept is **50**.
Thus, we can complete the sentence:
"The slope of the line that represents this relationship is **10**, and the y-intercept of the line is **50**."
