Talia tutors and wants to save money. Talia currently has $60 and plans to save an additional $35 per month. Which graph represents the number of months it will take Talia to save at least $200?
The correct graph would be a graph that shows the number of months on the x-axis and the amount of money saved on the y-axis.
In this case, the graph would start at $60 (the initial amount) on the y-axis and increase by $35 (the additional amount saved per month) for each subsequent month on the x-axis.
The graph would continuously increase until it reaches $200 or more on the y-axis.
The correct graph would be a line that starts at $60 and steadily increases by $35 for each subsequent month until it reaches $200 or more.
Graph A would be a graph that starts at $60 (representing the initial amount) and increases by different amounts in different months, eventually reaching $200 or more on the y-axis. This is not a representation of Talia's saving plan.
Graph B and Graph C both show a line that starts at $60 (representing the initial amount) and steadily increases by the same amount ($35) for each subsequent month. The line in Graph B reaches $200 on the y-axis, which represents Talia's goal of saving at least $200. Therefore, Graph B is the correct representation of the number of months it will take Talia to save at least $200.
