Karl receives a special book offer in the mail. He can buy as many books as he wants from a list for $5.00 per book. Additionally, Karl gets a complimentary $3.00 off for participating in the offer. The equation y = 5x - 3 gives his final cost, y. As the number of books that Karl purchases increases, what happens to his overall savings?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, the equation tells us that the number of books are multiplied by 5 and then subtract 3 due to the offer. If you buy many books, then the offer will still only give $3 discount... Are you able to see it now?

So his overall savings would stay the same ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, exactly, they stay at $3
