To bake one cake, Drew uses 18 ounces of flour. He has 850 ounces of flour. Let y represent the ounces of flour left and x represent the number of cakes he has baked. When the situation is modeled on a graph, what are the slope and the y-intercept of the line representing this situation?
A.
slope = 850 and y-intercept = 18
B.
slope = 18 and y-intercept = 850
C.
slope = -18 and y-intercept = 850
D.
slope = 850 and y-intercept = -18

Respuesta :

Answer:

Choice C:

slope = -18x

y-intercept = 850

Step-by-step explanation:

Drew uses 18 ounces of flour

-18x represents the amount of flour used

850 ounces of flour

or (0,850) is the y-intercept and represents the total number of flour

Answer

slope = -18x

y-intercept = 850
