Question

mr. torress math class and ms. lees science class are both raising money for a field trip. each class started with a different amount and raises money at a different rate per week.

• mr. torress class started with $40 already donated and raises $15 per week.
• ms. lees class started with $70 and raises $10 per week.

they want to figure out when they will have raised the same amount of money
question 4
if another class had the same equation as mr. torress class, how would their line look on the graph? how many points would the two lines share? what does that mean about their fundraising plans?

Explanation:

If another class has the same equation as Mr. Torres's class, their lines would be identical on the graph. Identical lines share infinitely many points. This means their fundraising plans are exactly the same in terms of the initial amount and the rate of raising money per week.

Answer:

• The lines would be identical.
• They would share infinitely many points.
• It means their fundraising plans (initial amount and weekly raising rate) are exactly the same.
