Question 99210: each equation represents a linear relationship between x and y. For each equation, describe what happens to the y value as the x value increases by 1.
y = x+50
y = -5x+10 Answer by checkley71(8403) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Y=X+50 AS X INCREASES BY 1 THEN Y INCREASES BY 1
PROOF.
LET X=10 Y=10+50=60 NOW INCREASE X BY 1 (X+1)=11 Y=11+50=61
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Y=-5X+10 AS X INCREASES BY 1 Y DECREASES BY 5.
PROOF
LET X=8 Y=-5*8+10=-40+10=-30 NOW INCREASE X BY 1 (8+1)=9 Y=-5*9+10=-45+10=-35
