Answer:
[tex]y = x + \frac{1}{4} x[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given an equation of x and y as, [tex]y = x + \frac{1}{4} x[/tex].
Now, we have to assume a situation that can be modeled by this above equation.
Let I deposit money in my piggy bank for two consecutive weeks.
In the first week, I deposit a certain amount of money and in the next week, I deposit [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of previous week's deposit.
Now, we have to find the total amount of money that I have deposited.
If the total amount of money is y and the first week's deposit is x then we can write [tex]y = x + \frac{1}{4} x[/tex]. (Answer)
