Answer:
[tex]y=4x+35[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Linear Modeling
Some events can be modeled as linear functions. If we are in a situation where a linear model is suitable, then we need some relevant data to build the model and predict unknown behaviors.
The linear function can be expressed in the slope-intercept format as:
y=mx+b
Where m and b are constants.
The data of the problem states that Andre has a company with 35 employees. The company acquires 4 new employees each month.
Let's call:
x=number of months
y=total number of employees
Since the company has 4 new employees each month, after x months it will have gained 4x employees, which added to the 35 actually working make the expression of our model:
[tex]\mathbf{y=4x+35}[/tex]
