Question

How would I create a graph for this equation? The equation is c=4.95+3.99b

Answer 1

Answer:

  plot two points and draw a line through them

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is created for this the same way it is for any function: find some points on the graph, plot them, and draw an appropriate curve through them.

Since this is a linear equation, the graph is a straight line. Only two points are needed to allow you to plot the entire line.

For b=0, the point is (b, C) = (0, 4.95)

For b=5, the point is (b, C) = (5, 24.90)

The graph might look like the attached.

_____

For b=5, the equation gives ...

  C = 4.95 +3.99(5) = 4.95 +19.95 = 24.90
