Tim explained a function in words and paul wrote an equation. tim the amount of money in a savings account increases at a rate of $225 per month. after eight months, the bank account has $4,580 in it. paul y – 1,400 = 56 (x + 26) whose function has the smaller y-intercept? tim’s with a y-intercept of $2,700 paul’s with a y-intercept of $2,856 paul’s with a y-intercept of $2,800 tim’s with a y-intercept of $2,780v

Urk, I hope those are choices at the bottom, er- anyways...

+$225 (per month)

(8 months later which equals to $1,800)

ATM has $4,580 in it.

Paul's Equation: y – 1,400 = 56 (x + 26)

And the question is asking what function has the smallest y-intercept, so..

Tim’s with a y-intercept of $2,700

Paul’s with a y-intercept of $2,856

Paul’s with a y-intercept of $2,800

Tim’s with a y-intercept of $2,780

What I did was adding each choice with the $1,800 and the answer is the last one (Tim’s with a y-intercept of $2,780)

Why? Cause the first one equals to $2,502, second was $4,656, third was $4,600, and lastly the third equals to $2,780.

I hope this helps, as always. I wish you the best of luck and have a nice day, friend..
