Judy took $30 with her to spend on popcorn and drinks for herself and her friends at the movie theater. The price for each bag of popcorn was $5. The price of each drink was half the price of a bag of popcorn. a) Sketch the graph that represents the situation and label the intercepts. Use one axis to represent the number of bags of popcorn and the other axis to represent the number of drinks.

there are a few questions that needs answering to make your graph. 1. How many bags of popcorn can she buy with $30? 2. How much does a drink cost? 3. How many drinks can she buy with $30?

what do u think it is

OpenStudy (amd011802):

i figured out she can buy 4 drinks and 4 popcorns because drinks are 2.50 but i dont know how to graph it.

OpenStudy (peachpi):

ok, so let's start with that. It means that (4, 4) will be one point on your graph. But you need a second point. the easiest points to find are the intercepts. How much popcorn can she buy if she doesn't buy any drinks? How many drinks can she buy if she doesn't buy any popcorn?

OpenStudy (amd011802):

hold on im back let me see.

OpenStudy (amd011802):

she can buy 6 popcorns if she buys no drinks ans 12 drinks with on popcorn

OpenStudy (peachpi):

right, so they will be your intercepts |dw:1477512455250:dw|

thats all i do to graph it really thank you
