PLEASE HELP ME!!

Simba loans $2,000 to his buddy Timon to teach hula lessons.
Timon is having trouble balancing his books and winds up losing $500 a month
after starting up his business. Pumba is helping Timon calculate how much debt
he will be in after one year if he doesn't make any changes. What should he use
for the y-intercept? What should he use for the rate of change?

Answer:

  • y-intercept: 2000
  • rate of change: 500

Step-by-step explanation:

When Timon starts, he is already $2000 in debt. If we represent Timon's debt with positive numbers, the y-intercept will be $2000.

Timon's debt seems to be increasing at the rate of $500 per month. That value is the rate of change.

After m months, Timon's debt d will be ...

  d = 500m + 2000
