Question

card 14
a slope:
b
they started with __________ dollars.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the y-intercept

The y - intercept of a graph is the value of y when x = 0. From the graph, when x = 0 (number of comics is 0), the value of y (dollars) is 20.

Step2: Relate y - intercept to the starting amount

The starting amount of money is the amount when no comics have been bought (x = 0). So the y - intercept represents the starting amount.

Answer:

20
