Sorry it took me so long I got busy but you are correct with b fish.

Jaynater · Answer

Wait a minute. If she must complete 30 hours of service, and is starting from 0, how is it any of these?

sxdsouls · Answer

It can't be any negatives cuz uh yea

sxdsouls · Answer

so id have b and d

Jaynater · Answer

But it can't be any positives either since she has no hours in yet. I am confusion.

sxdsouls · Answer

B.	y = 2x + 30
	
	D.	y = 2x – 30

sxdsouls · Answer

it cant be d cuz u arent subtracting or whatever

Jaynater · Answer

Yes, I understand, but like...
we shouldn't have 30 yet.

sxdsouls · Answer

No, she needs 30 hours of community service and she does 2 per day

Jaynater · Answer

Yes, but she needs to achieve 30. She has none as of now, at least the problems doesn't tell if she does.

sxdsouls · Answer

did you even read it

Jaynater · Answer

Yes, I did

Jaynater · Answer

She needs 30 hours of service. How many she currently has would be the y-intercept.

Extrinix · Answer

She needs 30 hours, so we're doing a down-graph, meaning that the starting point is 30 (y-int) and it goes down from there, make it -2

So you would have y=-2x+30

sxdsouls · Answer

what

Jaynater · Answer

I see.

Extrinix · Answer

It's complicated, but the wording isn't how many she needs, it's how many she's worked so far

Jaynater · Answer

So, when she reaches 0, she has no more to work for.

sxdsouls · Answer

no wait

Extrinix · Answer

So if she's worked none, that means she has 30 hours to work, and then if she works every 2 hours, the graph goes down

ion think so

sxdsouls · Answer

what

Laylalyssa · Answer

wait so is it A then

Laylalyssa · Answer

Bc if she did one day
we plug in 1 where the x is at
y=-2x+30

y=-2(1)+30
y= -2+30
y=28

Extrinix · Answer

^^^

Because if she works for 15 days, she'll complete her 30 hours worth of work.
