Question: Michael and Lindsey are saving money. Michael begins with $9 and saves $2 per week. Linda begins with no money but saves $5 per week.
Part A: Write an equation (in slope-intercept form) which represents the total amount of money saved for each person (Hint: you will be writing two equations). Let y = the amount of money, and x = the number of weeks. (Note: No work is required to get full credit for this part)

Equation for Michael: y =

Equation for Lindsey: y =

Part B: Graph the two equations on the coordinate plane on page 2 and circle the solution on the graph. (both graphs will be on the same grid) I made the grid big enough to be accurate. For this part, neatness is showing your work. Make sure to use a straight edge and the provided grid or graph paper.

Part C: Solve your equations using either the substitution method or the elimination method. Identify which method you are using by circling below then solve. You may choose which of the above methods you are most comfortable with, points are awarded based on the method you identify the work shown.
