Answer with explanation:

Given: A water bottle cost 4 dollars and a hat cost 6 dollars.

Let x = Number of water bottles

y = Number of hats

The club wants to raise $1200.

i.e. Required equation : 4x+6y=1200

At x=0,


0+6y=1200\Rightarrow\ y=(1200)/(6)\Rightarrow\ y=200

At x= 300


4(300)+6y=1200\\\Rightarrow\ 1200+6y=1200\Rightarrow\ 6y=0\Rightarrow y=0

At x= 240


4(240)+6y=1200\\\Rightarrow\ 960+6y=1200\Rightarrow\ 6y=240\Rightarrow y=40

So,three ordered pairs(x,y) that exist on the line : (0,200), (300,0) and (240,40)

Plot these point on graph and join them.
