1) kent has $1,700 in his bank account and spends $14 each week.
2) kent has $1,700 in his bank account and deposits $14 each week.
3) kent had $1,700 in his bank account and deposited another $14.
4) kent has $14 in his bank account and spent $1,700.

Question:

Which scenario best matches the linear relationship expressed in the equation y = –14x + 1,700?

1) Kent has $1,700 in his bank account and spends $14 each week.

2) Kent has $1,700 in his bank account and deposits $14 each week.

3) Kent had $1,700 in his bank account and deposited another $14.

4) Kent has $14 in his bank account and spent $1,700.

Option  1) Kent has $1,700 in his bank account and spends $14 each week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denote the number of weeks.

Option 1: Kent has $1,700 in his bank account and -14x as the negative sign denotes how much amount he spend each week.

Thus, Option 1 is the correct answer.

Option 2: Kent has $1,700 in his bank account and deposits $14 each week.

Writing it as equation, we have, which is not the expressed linear equation.

Hence,  Option 2 is not the correct answer.

Option 3: Kent had $1,700 in his bank account and deposited another $14.

Writing it as equation, we have, which is not the expressed linear equation.

Hence,  Option 3 is not the correct answer.

Option 4: Kent has $14 in his bank account and spent $1,700.

Writing it as equation, we have, which is not the expressed linear equation.

Hence,  Option 4 is not the correct answer.

Thus, the scenario that matches the linear equation relationship expressed in the equation is Option 1.

The answer is Kent has $1,700 in his bank account and spends $14 each week.
