Jamal bought a new computer. He made an initial payment of $100 to the store, and he will pay $50 each month until the computer is paid off. Create an equation that represents the relationship between m, the number of monthly payments Jamal has made, and t, the total amount that Jamal has paid the store.

Respuesta :

Answer: t = 5m + 100

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the given information to create an equation.

     "t, the total amount that Jamal has paid the store" ➜ t =  

     "he will pay $50 each month" ➜ 50m (slope)

     "He made an initial payment of $100" ➜ + 100 (y-intercept)

This gives us the following equation:

     t = 5m + 100
