In the equation y=2x+3,y represents the total number of preseason and regular season games that your softball team played this summer. The variable x represents the number of weeks in the regular season. Which statement is true?

C. Your team plays 3 preseason games.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation y = 2x + 3, y represents the total number of preseason and regular season games that your softball team played this summer.  The variable x represents the number of weeks in the regular season.  Which statement is true?  

A. The regular season lasts 2 weeks.  

B. The preseason lasts 2 weeks.  

C. Your team plays 3 preseason games.  

D. Your team plays 3 regular season games each week.

Solution:

The equation for a linear function is given as:

y = mx + b;

where m is the rate of change and b is the y intercept (that is initial value of y at x = 0), y and x are variables.

Given that y = 2x + 3;

The slope (m) = 2 and the y intercept (b) = 3

This slope means 2 games are played every week during the regular season games. The y intercept means that at before the regular games have start, 3 games have been played. Therefore, the team plays 3 preseason games.

first one because it can't have a fraction in it
