Question

Zachary purchased a computer for $1,600 on a payment plan. Two months after he purchased the computer, his balance was $1,370. Four months after he purchased the computer, his balance was $1,140. What is an equation that models the balance y after x months?

    Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the
    given points.
    7. (−1, 3) and (−3, 1) 8. (−4, 8) and (4, 6) 9. (9, 2) and (−3, −2)
    10. Zachary purchased a computer for $1,800 on a payment plan. Three months
    after he purchased the computer, his balance was $1,350. Five months after
    he purchased the computer, his balance was $1,050. What is an equation that
    models the balance B after m months?
    11. What does the slope signify in this equation and why?
    y = 2x + 1
    y = x + 4 y = −__
    1
    4x + 7 y = __

    x − 1
    y = −5 y = −__
    1
    2
    x + 4
    B = −150m + 1800
    In the equation B = −150m + 1800, the slope signifies the
    monthly payment amount because the balance decreases by
    $150 each month.
