Part 3: Patty's Printing
Linear equation = equation of a line= y=mx+b
y=21.5x
Part 4: Sandra's Shirts:
Linear equation = equation of a line= y=mx+b
y= 18x+63
Part 5: Note to Jackie
Dear Jackie, I recommend Sandra's shirts.
Write equations:
Sandra's Shirts = 18x+63
Patty's Printing = 21.5x
Sandra's Shirts: 495=18x+63 = 24 shirts
Patty's Printing: 495=21.5x = 23 shirts
Part 6: Refute Jackie
Sandra's Shirts is more expensive at the beginning, but as you buy more shirts (greater than 18), Patty's Printing becomes cheaper.
You should probably add to this, but I can't think of anything else.
Part 7: Equality
At 18 shirts (see table), the shirt cost is equal.
You should probably add to this, but I can't think of anything else.
18x+63=21.5x
Words of encouragement:
Good luck!
