Sarah deposited some money in a bank. The bank paid her a simple interest every year. After t years, the amount of money f(t), in dollars, that the bank paid Sarah was $1500 greater than 15 times the number of years. Which statement best describes the steps to sketch a graph showing the relationship between f(t) and t?

Question

Label t on the x axis and f(t) on the y axis and plot a graph having slope = 1500 and y intercept = 15.
	Label f(t) on the x axis and t on the y axis and plot a graph having slope = 50 and y intercept = 100.
	Label t on the x axis and f(t) on the y axis and plot a graph having slope = 15 and y intercept = 1500.
	Label f(t) on the x axis and t on the y axis and plot a graph having slope = 1500 and y intercept = 100

@helplesspenguin Can you help me with this one

anonymous · Answer

The function would be f(t)=1500+15t as it is 1500 units greater (meaning add) that 15 times the years (15t).
You would start by labeling the graph, x (which is t) and y (the money in $ in the bank account) axis and plotting the y intercept, which is 1500, and using the slope of 15.

Also, the title of the graph would be something along the lines of either the function, or "$s in Sarah's Bank Account" or something like that.

So the answer is C?
