Question

(a) a person is paying $19.40 per week to a friend to repay a $194 loan.
the situation matches graph ? ▼. the slope is -19.40 , which represents the decrease in the —select— ▼ of the loan each week. the y-intercept is (x, y) = ( 0,194 ), which represents the —select— ▼ of the loan.

Explanation:

1. The slope corresponds to the weekly decrease in the remaining loan amount, so the first selectable blank is "remaining amount".
2. The y-intercept (0, 194) occurs at week 0 (before any payments are made), so this represents the "initial amount" of the loan.

Answer:

The situation matches graph? ✓. The slope is -19.40, which represents the decrease in the remaining amount of the loan each week. The y-intercept is (x, y) = (0,194), which represents the initial amount of the loan.
