Answer:
(-2, -3), (1, 6), (2, 9) are plotted in the attached graph
Step-by-step explanation:
For x = -2, y = 3(-2) +3 = -3. The ordered pair is (-2, -3).
For x = 1, y = 3(1) +3 = 6. The ordered pair is (1, 6).
For x = 2, y = 3(2) +3 = 9. The ordered pair is (2, 9).
The graph is attached.
Answer:
17. See below
18. 750
Step-by-step explanation:
17. Since the lollipops are being sold at the same price, 50 cents, for each one sold, they make a constant amount of money. For each increase in lollipops sold, there is a constant increase in money made, and thus the situation is a linear function.
18. To solve this equation, let's say y is the money made at the convention in dollars and x is the number of lollipops sold. If the principal gave them 125 dollars before they sold any lollipops (0 lollipops sold), then 125 is the y-intercept of the function, and in the equation y=mx+b, b=125. If each lollipop costs 50 cents (half of a dollar), then for each lollipop, x, sold, .5 dollars are made and are added to the profit, y. Thus, .5 dollars is the slope. The equation then becomes:
Now, if they need 500 dollars, y is thus equal to 500 dollars. Solving the equation:
Thus, 750 lollipops must be sold.
