You need to set up a linear graph. One side with gallons and the other with dollars. Point 1 will be at (1500, 2.10). Point 2 (1300, 2.95). Draw a straight line through these points in your graph and your graph will then give you the answers to your other questions.
Sherman wants to spend on each pet, so we are assuming he wants to spend the same amount. He has 5 pets in all (3 cats, 2 dogs)
Divide 22 with 5
22/5 = 4.4
He can spend $4.40, or in fraction form:
4 4/10 (Mixed fraction)
hope this helps
The answer is D.
Y=2x Y=x(2)-3
2=2(1) 2=3(2)-3
2=2 2=6-3
2=2
