Are you looking for y=mx+b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes .. I think m is 15 but I'm, not sure about b ..

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

Every ten seconds She goes down one step. \[x= seconds \]

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

\[y=steps\]

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

so...\[-10=(m)10+b\] B=the y-intercept

JoelTheBoss (joel_the_boss):

Am I explaining it wrong?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is the (m) - 5/2 ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is the answer y = -5/2x + 15
