James has $32 and earns $10 per week for his allowance. What is the initial value for the scenario described?
Initial is what you start with. What does he have already before adding his weekly allowance?
32
@mathstudent55
correct
so is it just 32?
One more question please? @mathstudent55
Identify the initial value and rate of change for the graph shown (4 points) Initial value: 1, rate of change Initial value: , rate of change: 0 Initial value: 1, rate of change Initial value: , rate of change: 0
The initial value is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
The rate of change is the slope of the line.
so is it A?
A lot of the info is missing from your choices. The initial value is definitely 1.
What are the slopes of choices A and C?
sorry Initial value: 1, rate of change 3/5 Initial value: 3/5 , rate of change: 0 Initial value: 1, rate of change Initial value: 5/3 , rate of change: 0
and c is 1 and 5/3
Ok, just one more thing. What is the rate of change in choice C?
Oh, I see it now.
Let's find the slope.
Pick any two points on the graph. Pick easy points to read where the line passes through grid intersections.
1,4?
Where the line crosses the y-axis is a good point. What are the coordinates of that point?
1,1?
im confused

Notice the point marked on the graph.
It is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. From the origin (the point where the x-and y-axes intersect), how far right or left do you go to that point?
