Javier works at a print shop. He starts printing at 8:00 a. m. The number of printed brochures is a linear function of the number of minutes since Javier started printing. By 8:50 a. m. he had printed 240 brochures, and by 9:00 a. m. he had printed 288. Write an equation in the form y = mx + b that represents the number of brochures, y, that were printed after x minutes.

y = 4.8(x) + 0

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, Javier managed to print 240 brochures in 50minutes from 8:00 to 8:50. If we divide these values we see that he printed 4.8 brochures per minute. The same result is given for the 10 minutes from 8:50 to 9:00 where he printed 48 brochures. Therefore, we can get the following linear formula from these values.

y = 4.8(x) + 0

In this case, b would equal 0 because Javier is starting from 0 brochures made when he gets to work at 8:00 a.m
