Abigail loves collecting stamps. A particular pack of stamps costs a lot of money, so she sells half of
her collection in order to afford it. She buys the
pack of 15 stamps and now has 145 total. How
many did she have before she sold half of the
collection?

shell's the art director at her local community center. she paid $10 and for each child that attends she earns $4.

for each child she ears $4 that is the slope m = 4

she paid $10, that is the initial amount paid. so 10 is the y intercept b

m =4   and b = 10

y intercept is 10 so the point is (0,10)

we start graph from y intercept (0,10)

slope = 4 . we know slope = rise / run

slope = 4   or 4/1   are same

rise = 4   and run = 1

for rise we move 4 units up and for run we move 1 unit to the right

the graph is attached below

x axis is the number of child she attends

y axis is the amount   she earns
