1 answer

The y-intercept represents the initial amount in the savings account, which is $300.

The slope represents the rate at which money is being deposited into the savings account. In this case, the slope is $50 every 1 month.

Therefore, the y-intercept is $300 and the slope is $50 every 1 month.
