Rick buys and sells antiques via the internet. so far, he has profited $2,502. based on his profits to date, he developed the following linear model where x represents time in months, and y represents his total profits, in dollars. interpret the slope. y = 2,502 + 417x
a. an additional month of buying and selling is associated with an additional $2,919 in profits.
b. an additional month of buying and selling is associated with an additional $2,502 in profits.
c. an additional month of buying and selling is associated with an additional $2,085 in profits.
d. an additional month of buying and selling is associated with an additional $417 in profits.

d. An additional month of buying and selling is associated with an additional $417 in profits.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have general form of intercept form of equation:

y = m*x + c (A)

Given equation is : y = 2502 + 417*x

Rewrite equation: y = 417*x + 2502 (B)

comparing equation (B) with equation (A), we get

m = 417 (additional benefits per month) because multiplied factor x is the month.

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.
