Question

in a certain year, the amount a of garbage in pounds produced after t days by an average person is given by A=1.5t

Answer 1

Yes, then?

Answer 2

I need to graph the equation for t>0?

Answer 3

Okay, graph it. Since this is a linear function, take just two points and graph a line through them.

Answer 4

I am missing a step in my math to find the formula to graph it

Answer 5

A = 1.5t

Let's take t = 1.
A = 1.5(1)
= 1.5

So, our first point is (1,1.5)

Let's now take t = 2.
A = 1.5(2)
= 3

So, the second point is (2,3)

Answer 6

I came up with a=1.5 and t is 0

Answer 7

Erm?

Answer 8

Did you understand what I wrote above?

Answer 9

yes and thsnkd

Answer 10

thanks

Answer 11

OK, so graph those two points and then pass a line through them.
