Please help! - Kim needs to place 32 mystery books and 56 biography books on library shelves. She is to place the maximum number
of books on each shelf so that all the shelves have the same number of books. Each shelf will contain only one type of book. (Questions are in the picture, sorry for spelling mistakes)

So if you want to fit the y-intercepts or "b", on the y-axis you should go by 25's [0, 25, 50, 75, 100...]
If the x-axis <u>does not have to</u> follow the same pattern (25's), you should go by 5's [0, 5, 10, 15, 20...]
y = 7x + 50
y = 2x + 175
First I would plot the y-intercepts for each equation, then plot a few points with x = 5, 10, 15 Then draw a straight line.
The point where the two lines meet/cross paths is your solution. It should be (25, 225) The x-axis is the number of miles, and the y-axis is the total cost. So Truck driver A and B would arrive/be at the same place/meet in 25 miles at the same cost of $225
