Question

At a fair, Bob draws caricatures. He pays the

fair $30 for space to set up a table and $2 for
each drawing he sells.
Write and graph an equation to represent the
total amount of money Bob pays the fair in
order to sell his caricatures. Let x = the
number of caricatures he sells.

Answer 1

y=2x+30

Explanation:

Let x be the number of caricatures Bob sells. He pays $2 for each drawing he sells, then he pays $2x for selling x drawings.

He pays the fair $30 for space to set up a table, so an equation which the total amount of money Bob pays the fair in order to sell his caricatures is

`y=2x+30`

The graph of this function is attached.
