A group of workers is harvesting berries at a constant rate. An equation that represents the number of baskets of berries the workers picked over a period of time, in hours, is y=5x+10.

A) What are the slope and the y-intercept for the equation that represents the number of baskets of berries the workers picked over a period of time?

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

C) Use the graph papada to draw a graph representing the situation. Label the axes appropriately?

A) slope is 5 and y-intercept is 10. so five would be the number of berries and the period of time would be y i think sorry if i got it wrong

B) the rate change is five because because x multiplied by a five would be a constant change of five

C) sorry I don't understand that one
