Let's say the amount of money Uriah saves after x weeks is represented by y.
Since he puts $200 in the bank initially, the equation to represent the amount of money he saves after x weeks would be:
y = 200
To create a table, let's assign different values for x (the number of weeks) and calculate the corresponding values for y (the amount of money saved):
| x (weeks) | y (amount saved) |
|-----------|-----------------|
| 0 | 200 |
| 1 | 200 |
| 2 | 200 |
| 3 | 200 |
As we can see from the table, regardless of the number of weeks, Uriah always saves $200.
To graph this data, we'll plot the points (x, y) from the table on a graph:

The y-value (vertical axis) always remains at 200, indicating that Uriah consistently saves $200, regardless of the number of weeks (x-value, horizontal axis).
Uriah was given $200 for Christmas and he put it in the bank to save for x weeks write an equation to represent the amount of money he saved for a given amount of weeks the make a table and graph the data
