The altitude above sea level of an airplane just after taking off from an airport on a high plateau is given by the linear function yequals1 comma 100x plus 2491, where y is in feet and x is the time in minutes since take-off. Find and interpret the slope and y-intercept.

Slope, m = 1100

y-intercept,c = 2491                                                            

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The above gives the altitude of the airplane above the sea level in feet(y) after x minutes since the take off.

Comparing the above equation, to a general linear equation, we have,

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Comparing we get,

Slope, m = 1100

y-intercept,c = 2491

Interpretation:
