To graph a situation that would involve a linear graph, first determine your x and y axes.
The x-axis will be the independent variable, one that does not change based on other variables. An example is time.
The y-axis, the dependent variable, depends on the independent variable.
The model equation for a linear line is y = mx + b.
"m" is the slope, and the "b" is the y-intercept (where the graph crosses the x-axis at x=0).
For example, a situtation could be that Joe starts with $10 in his account and adds $5 every day to his account.
The x-axis is time in days.
The y-axis is amount of money in his account.
The slope, or rate of change is 5.
The y-intercept, the amount of money he has at x=0 (0 days) is $10.
The equation would be y = 5x + 10
To draw this, plot the y-intercept at (0, 10), and the next point would be 5 units up and one unit to the right because the slope is 5, or 5/1 (remember slope is rise over run: "rise" up 5 and "over" to the right 1).
15x - 10 where x is equal to the number of weeks would respresent the situation above. This is because he gains 15 cards every week and gave ten cards to James once.
If it has only been one week, the expression will be 15 - 10 because 15 × 1 = 15.
I hope this helps!

74 78 82 86 90
94 98 102 106 110 114 118
Each ball would be 2.50
If that's wut ur asking
Give me a thanks if it helps thx
Let the equation be 1/2x=48-10
where x is the dad's weight
1/2x=48-10
1/2x=38
x=76 ( i divided both sides by 1/2)
