Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Explanation:

Let

y------> the total cost

x------> the number of shirts

we know that

The linear equation is


y=1.50x+4.50 ------> equation of the line

To graph the line find the intercepts

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

Find the y-intercept

For x=0


y=1.50(0)+4.50=4.50

The y-intercept is the point (0,4.50)

Find the x-intercept

For y=0


0=1.50x+4.50


1.50x=-4.50


x=-4.50/1.50=-3

The x-intercept is the point (-3,0)

Plot the intercepts to graph the line

see the attached figure
