Sal's Sandwich Shop sells wraps and sandwiches as part of its lunch specials. The profit on every sandwich is $2 and the profit on every wrap is $3. Sal made a profit of $1,470 from lunch specials last month. The equation 2x + 3y = 1,470 represents Sal's profits last month, where x is the number of sandwich lunch specials sold and y is the number of wrap lunch specials sold.

1. Change the equation to slope intercept form. Identify the slope and y- intercept of the equation. Be sure to show all your work.

2x + 3y= 1470
2x + 3y -2 = 1470 subtract 2x from both sides
3y= 1470 -2x simplify
3y/3= 1470/3 -2x/3 divide both sides by 3
y= -2/3x +490 simplify
-⅔ is the slope and 490 is the y- intercept

2. Describe how you would graph this line using the slope- intercept method. Be sure to write in full sentences.

Start at 490 on the y axis. After that you would use rise over run, down 2 units and right three. Do this until you reach the end of the graph, then go oppisite; up 2 left 3

3. Write the equation in function notation. Explain what the graph of the function represents. Be sure to use complete sentences.
I CANNOT figure out how to make the equation into notation form. Can someone please help?
