Jerry was given some birthday money. He puts the money in an account. Every month after that, he deposits the same amount of money. The equation that models this situation is y = 50x + 75, 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?

A. He was given $50 for his birthday.

B. He puts $75 in the account each month.

C. He puts $50 in the account each month.

D. He was given $75 for his birthday.

The y -intercept in this situation mean that Jerry was given $75 for his birthday

The equation below is a linear equation.

y = 50x + 75

A linear equation is an equation that has a single variable raised to the power of 1. 50x is raised to the power of 1

75 represents the constant. This is the money he deposited in the account. 75 is the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the value of the line y when it crosses the y-axis

50x is the slope of the line. - 50 is the amount he puts in every month and x represents month.

The slope of a line also known as the gradient of the line determines the steepness and direction of a line. If the slope coefficient is less than zero, the slope is negative and it would decline from left to right

y is the dependent variable. It is the total amount he would have at the end of each month.  y depends on the constant term (75), the number of months(x) and the amount he deposits every month (50)

at the end of :

one month, he would have : 50(1) + 75 = 125

two months, he would have : 50(2) + 75 = 175
