Question

Please help, I'm not that good with graphing. Can someone explain/help me with these 8 questions? Walk me through it at least. Thanks.

Answer 1

Mrs. Solar modeled Contractor 1’s fee formula with the equation y = 50x + 200.

1. (25 points) Graph the equation y = 50x + 200. Give each axis a label.

Answer 2

@StudyGurl14 @AlexandervonHumboldt2

Answer 3

first plot the y-intercept, which is (0, 200)

Answer 4

then go up 50 units, and over 1. That's your second point.

Answer 5

Then draw a line through them.

Answer 6

The x (horizontal axis) represents the number of hours worked, and the y axis represents the fee

Answer 7

Can I draw it out then show you if I did it correctly? @StudyGurl14

Answer 8

yep

Answer 9

Does this seem correct? Sorry if my dots are too small.

Answer 10

@StudyGurl14

Answer 11

oh wait I think I did it wrong, I go 50 units up, not directly over one right @StudyGurl14

Answer 12

It would look like this? @StudyGurl14

Answer 13

sorta of. make the line longer

Answer 14

Oh I see thanks, can you help me out on a few more? @StudyGurl14

Answer 34

Oooh like this:


Okay like renting a house or an apartment or something like that lol.

The down payment is $200, and for the 50x, you would have to pay $50 every day or every week, and y would equal the total amount c:

Answer 35

@ChantySquirrel1129** Oh okay I see but uhh, theres another question that links up with that example that you used. I don't know how to order it? If I make my own example or use yours? Hold on let me copy and paste it

Answer 36

3. (30 points) Give 3 ordered pairs that are true to the equation and explain what each ordered pair means in the real-world context. @ChantySquirrel1129**

Answer 37

do I know you? e.e

Answer 38

@Anaise no, sorry I was just tagging people to help me. ;-;

Answer 39

lel...if you need halp in english.....tag me cx

Answer 40

Ohh alright xD @Anaise

Answer 41

@ChantySquirrel1129** are you still there?

Answer 42

Ok, well what you would do is plug in a number for the "x" in the equation and just solve for y. Like this :

Answer 43

So if I used your example,

"The down payment is $200, and for the 50x, you would have to pay $50 every day or every week, and y would equal the total amount"

One of them would be (5, 450) ..?

Sorry I'm really new to this because we just started learning it. How would I figure out the other two? @ChantySquirrel1129**

Answer 44

OH wait no

Answer 45

You used the numbers from the first equation (right?) sorry

Answer 46

But if I do use that example, how would I figure out 3 order pairs? @ChantySquirrel1129**

Answer 47

Need help?

Answer 48

Yes! :D

No, it's completely fine! :) Don't worry about it, I'll help you all the way!


You would just plug in some values for "x" like how I did up there, I plugged in "5" for the x value (just any random number would be fine)

Answer 49

So for the example you said.. (5, 450) would be one of the order pairs..? @ChantySquirrel1129** Sorry i'm getting really confused :(

Answer 50

Yes, it would c:

Answer 51

Can you write out how to get the two other ones? Or explain because I'm still really confused
