A company produces accessories for smart phones and tablets. The profit on each smart phone case is $5 and the profit on each tablet case is $3. The company made a profit of $900 on the cases last month. The equation 5x + 3y = 900 represents the company's profit from cases last month, where x is the number of smart phone cases sold and y is the number of tablet cases sold.
2. Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method.

3. Write the equation in function notation.
Explain what the graph of the function represents.
