Given that the graph shows P as a function of n, we have:

a. The more hot dogs that is sold, his profit increases.

b. Jimmy sells the hot dog for $1 each.

c. Jimmy needs to sell 16 hot dogs to recover the $8 he invested.

d. He would make a profit of $7.

e. The number of hot dogs he needs to sell is: 20.

<h3>What is a Linear Function?</h3>

A linear  function is expressed as, y = mx + b, where y is a function of x, m is the unit rate, and b is the starting value or initial value of the function.

We are given that profit, P, is a function of the number of hot dogs sold, n.

a. The graph of the function slopes upwards, so this means that the more hot dogs that is sold, his profit increases.

b. Cost of 1 hot dog = Unit rate = change in y / change in x = 2 units/2 units

Cost of 1 hot dog = Unit rate = 1

Thus, Jimmy sells the hot dog for $1 each.

c. If you trace profit (P) on the graph when it is $8, the corresponding number of hot dogs, n, would be 16.

So, Jimmy needs to sell 16 hot dogs to recover the $8 he invested.

d. When n = 15, P, from the graph would be 7.

Thus, if Jimmy sells 15 hot dogs, he would make a profit of $7.

e. When P = 12, from the graph, the corresponding n value is 20.

Therefore for Jimmy to make $12, the number of hot dogs he needs to sell is: 20.

Bryan is asked to write an inequality to represent the graph.
Fittoniya [83]

The error that Bryan has done in this inequality is that he included –14 in his solution set.

<h3>How to point out the mistake made</h3>

What Bryan has to do would be to write this inequality in such a way that the variable would appear on the left.

But the symbol that he has chosen does not move in this same direction as the graph.

The -14 should not be inclusive in the graph because it is not a part of the graph solution.

He used the wrong number in this inequality.
