Maggy started a savings account in March of 2003. On March 2007, she had $4,200. On March 2015, she had $10,400. If Maggy's saving is modeled by a linear function, what was her initial deposit? A) $1,100 B) $1,300 C) $1,500 D) $700
m=(10400-4200)/(2015-2007)=6200/8=775 so we so far have a line of:
s=775(y-2003)+b, using either original point we can solve for b, the y-intercept which is the initial value as well...I'll use point (2007, 4200) and we get:
