Write the equation for the linear relationship in slope-intercept form. Javi regularly checks his balance on his bus pass. Friday afternoon, his balance was $26.25. Monday morning, his balance was $1.50.

The two points can be:

(0, $26.25) and (3, $1.50)

Where this function is the balance as a function on the number of days.

And the equation is:

y = -$8.25*x + $26.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define Friday as our day 0, we know that on Friday his balance was $26.25

Then we have the ordered pair (0, $26.25)

Monday is 3 days after Friday, then this will be day number 3, and on Monday his balance was $1.50, then we have the ordered pair (3, $1.50)

Now that we have two ordered pairs, we can talk about linear relationships.

A line is written as:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

IIf we have a line that passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) then the slope of the line is:

a = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Then whit the points (0, $26.25) and (3, $1.50) we can find the slope of our line:

a = ($1.50 - $26.25)/(3 - 0) = -$8.25

Then our line is:

y = -$8.25*x + b

To find the value of b we can just replace the point (0, $26.25), this means that we need to replace x by 0, and y by $26.25

$26.25 = -$8.25*0 + b

$26.25 = b

Then the linear equation will be:

y = -$8.25*x + $26.25

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
