BRAINLIEST Question: A group of workers is harvesting berries at a constant rate. An equation that represents the total number of baskets of berries the workers picked over a period of time, in hours, is y = 7x + 15.

A) What are the slope and the y-intercept for the equation?

B) Which term represents the total number of baskets of berries the workers picked over a period of time?

C) What are the rate of change and the initial amount? Explain the meaning of the rate of change and the initial amount for the situation.

A. the slope of the equation is 7 and y-intercept is 15

B. the term "y" represents the total

C. The rate of change is 7x and the initial amount is 15. The rate of change means the "thing" (or variable) that keeps on changing and here it is the 7x. This means that every hour, the workers pick 7 baskets and this number will change based on the hours, which can is represented by the x. The 15 is our initial amount of baskets we had before starting because it is unchanging, it is our initial amount.

Explanation for A & B:

A.  This equation is written in slope-intercept form which is, y=mx+b the slope is represented by the "m" and the y-intercept is represented by the "b". In simpler words, slope=m and y-intercept=b

B. When we take our given amount which is 15 baskets (y) and add it to our slope  (7x) or the amount that changes based on time

we will get our total y, which represents the total amount of baskets

10 * 563.67 = 5636.7
